Living History: The inspiration for Brownes Bar came from the Browne Family or Lord Kenmare's who in 1853 supplied the land upon which Great Southern Killarney's was built. You'll also see a silver fire bell hanging in an alcove near the bar. Clearly inscribed 1861 - the same year Queen Victoria visited Killarney - this bell hung in the inner-courtyard of the hotel to act as an alarm in case of fire. Thankfully, it was never needed.
