Description
Where Saint Patrick began his mission in Ireland.
It was in Armagh and Down that Saint Patrick began his mission in Ireland, established his first Church and created Armagh as the spiritual centre of the Island. From Bangor to Armagh drive the 92 mile signed route connecting key sites which have a strong link with St Patrick's Life, Legacy and Landscape.
