St Patrick's Cathedral

St Patrick's Cathedral stands on the oldest Christian site in Dublin where, it is said, the Saint baptised converts to the Christian faith in a well beside the building. Because of this sacred association with St Patrick, a church has stood here since 450 A.D. In 1191 that old church was replaced by the present building, the largest church in Ireland, which as well as being a Cathedral, became the first University of Ireland.
