Join a special guided tour about the artefacts and shrines connected to Irish saints and how Christianity influenced the development of writing.
This event explores artefacts linked to Ireland’s patron saints—St. Patrick, St. Brigid, and St. Colmcille—and examines what archaeology reveals about the arrival of Christianity and the development of early writing in Ireland. Visitors can also view relics of other Irish saints in the Treasury exhibition, learn about the preservation of the Fadden More Psalter, and discover the role of writing and scholarship in Early Medieval Ireland.
