Kildare Local History

Co. Kildare Federation of Local History Groups

The Federation is a voluntary body that was formed in 1999 in order to exchange ideas, share information, and raise awareness of County Kildare’s local history groups and their activities. More information on the federation can be found in the About KFLHG section.

The News section contains information on history conferences, seminars, exhibitions, festivals, lectures, book launches, call outs for grants, award competitions, and bursaries relevant to the heritage, history, and archaeology of Co. Kildare.

The Local History Diary is provided for member groups/societies to post information about their talks and events throughout the year.

The website also includes a section on each member group arranged by area. These sections have details of the individual groups, their contact details, publications, and in some cases a brief local history of the location is provided. Select an area from the links below or throughout the website from the menu in the footer of each page.
