Where History Meets Community: A Cultural Haven in the Heart of Kinsale
A Timeless Landmark in Kinsale
The former St. Catherine’s church at Ardbrack stands as a beautifully preserved testament to Kinsale's rich heritage.
From Sacred Space to Cultural Centre
When this stunning church became surplus to the needs of the Church of Ireland, a dedicated group of friends from diverse backgrounds and traditions came together with a shared vision. They raised the funds to purchase this historic building and established St Catherine’s Cultural Centre Kinsale CLG, a registered charity committed to preserving and sharing this architectural gem.

Through careful refurbishment, we've transformed this sacred space into a vibrant cultural, community, historical and events centre—a gift to the people of Kinsale and Ireland in perpetuity.
