March 17th, St. Patrick's Day
There was a lad (junger Bursche) who escaped from enslavemant and studied theology in the Roman church. After some years in 432 A.D. he returned to Ireland, and began a lifelong quest of converting the Irish to Christianity. This was none other than Ireland's patron, Saint Patrick.
Today there are lots of parades, festivals and events going on around the country to the remembrance of this man.
