Knocktopher (from the Irish: Cnoc an Tóchair) is a village in County Kilkenny situated on the N9 National Primary Route between the city of Kilkenny and Waterford. It is located between the villages of Stoneyford, to the north, and Ballyhale, to the south. It has two pubs, two shops, a petrol station, a three star hotel, a restaurant and a glass gallery.

Knocktopher is home to an abbey, built in 1356 by James Butler, 2nd Earl of Ormond for the Carmelite Order of Friars.
