Kilfenora (Irish: Cill Fhionnúrach [ˌciːl̠ʲ ˈɪn̪ˠuːɾˠəx], meaning 'Church of the Fertile Hillside' or 'Church of the White Brow')[1] is a village and a civil parish in County Clare, Ireland.[2] It is situated south of the karst limestone region known as the Burren. Since medieval times when it was the episcopal see of the Bishop of Kilfenora, it has been known as the "City of the Crosses" for its seven (now five) high crosses.[1] The village had around 220 inhabitants in 2011. Much of the TV show Father Ted (1995–98) was filmed there.
