Killarney Franciscan Friary is a monastic establishment in Killarney, County Kerry, Ireland. The Franciscan community in Killarney was established in 1860, when Franciscan friars transferred from Gorey, County Wexford, where they had been for two years. The Franciscan church was completed in 1867 and consecrated in 1868, and the friary opened 1879, designed by J.J. McCarthy. The church was consecrated by Bishop David Moriarty (who had laid the foundation stone in 1864) and is dedicated to the Most Holy Trinity, the title of the old Muckross Abbey. In 1902 the friary became the novitiate house of the Irish Province (which had previously been in Ennis Friary). After completing their year as a novice, students would proceed to St. Anthony's College, Galway, to take an undergraduate degree at University College Galway, often going on to complete their clerical training by studying theology (since the Royal University of Ireland and its successor the National University of Ireland were prohibited from accrediting theology degrees until 1997) in the Irish Franciscan College (St. Anthony's), Louvain or in St. Isidore's, the Irish Franciscan College in Rome. The Franciscan Friars of Killarney is a 1911 American silent documentary produced by Kalem Company and directed by Sidney Olcott. The church contains a stained-glass window by the Harry Clarke studios, installed in 1930, designed by Richard King. In 2009 the Franciscans in Killarney donated one of their buildings, Áras Phádraig, to Kerry County Council for community use, since with the reduction in vocations it was not required by the order. The Franciscans now live in a new house built within the grounds of the church, while the old buildings are used by the Kerry Diocesan Youth Centre. In 2010 it was announced that Killarney, would serve as postulancy friary (a pre-novitiate year) for the British and Irish Franciscans, today Ennis Friary is the postulancy house for the Irish and British provinces of the Franciscans.In 2017 Killarney became an inter-provincial novitiate house of the order, training new novices for other Franciscan provinces (including Britain, Germany, Holland, Sweden and Canada, as well as Ireland). Following completion of their novitiate year, candidates make their first profession, and then return to their own country/province, to continue their formation.

Killarney railway station is a station on the Mallow to Tralee line serving the town of Killarney in County Kerry. It is situated next to the bus station and Killarney Outlet Centre. Adjacent to the station on the approach road is the Great Southern Hotel which was built for the railway in 1854 and was owned by CIE until 1984. The station has a moderately large stone building on the southside of the main platform, and a short overall roof. Since the platform was extended during the Mallow-Tralee mini-CTC scheme very little of the main platform is covered. There is also a bay serving the south face of the main platform which is several carriage lengths shorter than the main platform and terminates in buffer stops just short of the main station building. The former freight yard is opposite the main buildings on the northside of the station. Trains running from Mallow to Tralee calling at Killarney run into either the main platform or the bay platform then reverse into the headshunt to gain the line to Tralee. Trains from Tralee to Mallow pass the station and reverse in (if travelling towards Mallow). Most of the services on the line are now operated by bi-directional diesel multiple unit trains. Locomotive hauled trains from Tralee to Cork, Mallow and Dublin simply passed the station, stopped, then reversed into the platforms, then to continue on their way to Mallow with the engine always at the "right-end" - the reverse applied with trains from Mallow to Tralee which entered the station, reversed out and continued on their way, again with the locomotive at the right end without running round. The situation is different at Kilkenny where as direction was changed, locomotives had to be detached and put on the front of the train. A change of ends for locomotives was required. At Killarney there is also a facing crossover east of the station that allows trains in either direction to bypass Killarney Station, but it has been used for this purpose only rarely since freight trains to Tralee ended a few years ago. The station opened on 15 July 1853 as the terminus of a 40-mile branch from Mallow. This was subsequently extended to Tralee.
