Kennys Bookshop And Art Galleries

ituated in the heart of Galway, Kennys was established in 1940 by Des & Maureen Kenny. Maureen still works in the business along with five of her six children and many of her grandchildren. In total, the company employs nearly forty people. Web folklore has it that Kennys Bookshop was the second bookshop in the world to have its own website. Only a sci-fi shop in San Francisco beat them to it. As pioneers of bookselling online, Kennys have continually redeveloped their site over the years to keep up-to-date on the changing trends and needs of our customers. Kennys has a renowned stock of books on Irish history, culture, literature and language, as well as a comprehensive selection of non-Irish material that covers all aspects of the human experience.
