About this listen

Broadcast media travel expert, Stephanie Abrams, host of travel radio shows and Travel TV WITH Stephanie Abrams, whisks you through a quick look at the Saint Patrick Centre in Downpatrick, County Down, Northern Ireland, located beside Down Cathedral and its hsitoric cemetery where three saints are buried in one gravesite: Patrick, Brigid and Columcille, also known as Saint Columba.  This little rhyme is well known to young school children to help them remember this sacred spot:

"In Down three saint

Do one grave fill:

Patrick, Brigid and Columcille."

The Saint Patrick Centre is the only permanent exhibit to Patrick in the world and is educational, artistic, informative and provides insights into Patrick's life and early Christianity in an inspiring and uplifting way.  The story of Patrick is told in Patrick's own words through the writings of Patrick which were available after his death for future centuries.  Patrick's death is noted as 461 A.D.
