Shamrock Plaza on Shamrock Square

Shamrock (irish seamróg) is a three-leaf clover a symbol of Ireland.

According to legend, Saint Patrick used it by showing this plant as one stem with three leaves to depict the essence of the Holy Trinity. On St. Patrick’s (17th March), shamrock is worn in lapel clothes by Irish people around the world. It has also been adapted as a trademark by the Irish airline Aer Lingus as well as other companies wanting to emphasize their Irish affiliation.

Therefore there is Shamrock Plaza on Shamrock Square in town of Carlow.

Shamrock Plaza is in a great location in the center of Carlow town, at the intersection where the N9 intersects the city’s main shopping street, Tullow Street. The building was built in 2009 and is an example that Carlow is one of the fastest growing town in Ireland. The building was erected on the landscaped open square named Shamrock Square.

Shamrock Plaza has become one of the symbols of the new style and standard of living in Carlow town. It offers a carefully planned combination of commercial, residential and health medical spaces. All built and equipped in a modern form. It includes a number of retail outlets, restaurant, cafe, pharmacy, Bank of Ireland and office outlets. The last two upper floors in the part of the building overlooking St. Patrick College – these are high-class residential apartments. Shamrock Plaza consists of two buildings, Merchant House and The Atrium, there is also a large guarded, underground car park.

As of today, the following stores and services are located in the Carlow Shopping Centre:

Shamrock Plaza apartments are the highest standards apartments in Carlow town and also the most expensive ones.
