Nenagh

Town in northern County Tipperary, Republic of Ireland; population (2002) 6,100. It is situated 18 km/11 mi northeast of Killaloe and 8 km/5 mi from Lough Derg. The principal industry is pharmaceuticals. Nenagh Castle is a Norman circular keep built around 1200 by Theobald Fitzwalter, an ancestor of the Earls of Ormond. The upper part was restored in 1860.

Nenagh has the ruins of a Franciscan friary founded in the 13th century, and there is a heritage centre in the heptagonal governors' house of the old county jail. The ruins of the Augustinian Tyone Abbey, founded in 1200, are 2 km/1 mi southeast of Nenagh, and 6 km/4 mi east, at Rathurles, is a ring fort with the ruins of an early gatepost and a 15th-century church inside.
