Lonely Planet review for Old Butter Market

Cork had the largest butter market in the world during the 1860s, exporting butter as far as India, South America and Australia. The Butter Exchange was in Shandon and you can still spot dairy motifs throughout the area: look out for the cow above the old butter market, which was being used as a souvenir centre but is now closed.
