Thurles, in County Tipperary, is where the Gaelic Athletic Association was founded, and it serves as the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cashel and Emly. The main draw for visitors is Holy Cross Abbey, a short drive southwest of the town centre. Thurles has a café and restaurant scene that holds up well for a market town its size.
