Activities around County Armagh
St Patrick is known around the world, but it is the island of Ireland that made him a legend. While his journey can be traced all around the island, it is Armagh that is at the heart of celebrating the life of St Patrick – where the patron saint founded his first large stone church. The city today now has two cathedrals in his name, and of course, the Home of St Patrick Festival – expect a lively week of culture, music, song and dance!
