Stonemasonry Workshop: Science Week at the Medieval Mile Museum

This November, the Medieval Mile Museum is bringing Ireland’s ancient ingenuity to life with a week of fascinating workshops for Science Week. Kindly supported by SETU, the South East Technological University and delivered by the School of Irish Archaeology and the McDonald Family of stonemasons, this free event invites adults to explore how early innovation shaped our history, from the first farmers of the Stone Age to the stonemasons who built Kilkenny’s finest landmarks.

 

The Stonemasonry Workshop is an evening dedicated to the timeless craft of stone masonry. Led by the McDonald family of stonemasons, this session offers a rare insight into the techniques, tools, and traditions that have shaped Ireland’s architecture for centuries.
Through live demonstrations and shared stories, visitors will see how ancient knowledge continues to influence craftsmanship today.
