Located in the quaint, medieval Irish town of Downpatrick, there's no better place to get your St Patrick's facts straight. For starters: he wasn't even Irish (yes really! It was a Brit who introduced Christianity to Ireland in the year 432).

Thought provoking and genuine. We have three young boys and they all enjoyed it too. Option of watching video sequences rather than having to read lots of information boards appealed to our boys.
