Saint
Patrick, who lived during the fifth century, is the patron saint and
national apostle of Ireland. Born in Roman Britain, he was kidnapped and
brought to Ireland as a slave at the age of 16. He later escaped, but
returned to Ireland and was credited with bringing Christianity to its
people. In the centuries following Patrick's death (believed to have
been on March 17, 461), the mythology surrounding
his life became ever more ingrained in the Irish culture: Perhaps the
most well known legend is that he explained the Holy Trinity (Father,
Son and Holy Spirit) using the three leaves of a native Irish clover,
the shamrock.
Since around the ninth or 10th century,
people in Ireland have been observing the Roman Catholic feast day of
St. Patrick on March 17.
