Thomastown going down a treat with German visitors - Kilkenny Live

German Erasmus students have taken Thomastown to their hearts in recent as they attend the LXI English Language School in the Co Kilkenny town.

"They are enjoying English classes, Irish music, host family accommodation, Irish food, cultural trips, Thomastown Historic talk, and social evenings," a post to the LanguageXchange Facebook page posted.

"It was a great opportunity for them to learn English and experience Irish culture," the post added.

Locally, a centre for the company is based at Berkley Lawn in Thomastown.
