Athlone is the fifth in the Irish Historic Towns Atlas series, which assembles topographical documentations on the development of Irish towns and publishes them as individual fascicles.
The Irish Historic Towns Atlas (IHTA) is a research project of the Royal Irish Academy. It traces the topographical development of towns and cities through its atlas publications. Each atlas consists of an essay with thematic maps, a topographical gazetteer and series of loose sheet facsimiles. It is part of a wider European project with over 500 comparable atlases published internationally. The IHTA also promotes the study of Irish towns and cities through its ancillary publications, seminars and special exhibitions.
