Sean's Bar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sean's Bar is a pub in Athlone, Ireland. It is the oldest pub in Ireland, dating back to 900, and is listed by Guinness World Records as so.
Sean's Bar is located on Main Street, Athlone, on the West Bank of the River Shannon, and was originally known as Luain's Inn. It is often colloquially referred to simply as Sean's.
During renovations in 1970, the walls of the bar were found to be made of wattle and wicker, dating back to the ninth century.
