The wide Valerian bridge was built in the 1300s, and is one of Europe's oldest. Beside it, there is a 500 year old Norman castle. Leighlinbridge's history and its links to the ancient seat of the Kings of South Leinster at Dinn Righ is remembered at the N9 exit to the village, where The Hill of the Kings, a sculpture by Michael Warren, won't go unnoticed from the roadside.
