Dating back to 1220, Down Cathedral is the site of St. Patrick's grave, and the first Kodak moment for any green-gilded pilgrim.

The grave's carved Mourne granite stone was laid in 1900 by the Belfast Naturalists' Field Club and, while many dispute the site's authenticity, we wouldn't advise standing over it and casting aspersions... especially not on March 17, the supposed date of St. Patrick's death.

Ever the altruist, Ireland's patron saint shares his final resting place with St. Brigid and St. Columcille - both of whom are also depicted in the Cathedral's Saint Patrick window.
