"Saint Patrick's Day Saint Patrick's Day, or the Feast of Saint Patrick (, ""the Day of the Festival of Patrick""), is a cultural and religious celebration held on 17 March, the traditional death date of Saint Patrick ( AD 385–461), the foremost patron saint of Ireland. Saint Patrick's Day was made an official Christian feast day in the early 17th century and is observed by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion (especially the Church of Ireland), the Eastern Orthodox Church, and the Lutheran Church. The day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland, and celebrates the heritage"
"Saint Patrick Saint Patrick (; ; ) was a fifth-century Romano-British Christian missionary and bishop in Ireland. Known as the ""Apostle of Ireland"", he is the primary patron saint of Ireland, along with saints Brigit of Kildare and Columba. He is venerated in the Roman Catholic Church, the Lutheran Churches, Anglican Communion, the Old Catholic Church and in the Eastern Orthodox Church as equal-to-the-apostles and ""Enlightener of Ireland"". The dates of Patrick's life cannot be fixed with certainty, but there is broad agreement that he was active as a missionary in Ireland during the second half of the 5th century."

It is celebrated inside and outside Ireland as a religious and cultural holiday.

His mission mainly seems to have been to Irish Christians in the east midlands, Leinster, and perhaps east Munster. It is uncertain if he converted any Irish.

Tradition maintains that in A.D. 432, St. Patrick arrived on the island and, in the years that followed, worked to convert the Irish to Christianity. St Patrick's ""Confession"", in Latin, written by him is the earliest Irish historical document. It gives some information about the Saint.

Supporting the later date, the annals record that in 553 ""the relics of Patrick were placed ""sixty years after his death"" in a shrine by Colum Cille"" (emphasis added).

This view is backed by the fact that the Watling Street ran indirectly to north Wales and thus offered easy passage to Ireland.

The first evidence of a link between St Patrick and the shamrock appears in 1675 on the St Patrick's Coppers or Halpennies. These appear to show a figure of St Patrick preaching to a crowd while holding a shamrock, presumably to explain the doctrine of the Holy Trinity.
