Saint Patrick Visitor Centre

The Saint Patrick Visitor Centre is a modern exhibition complex located in Downpatrick, County Down, Northern Ireland.

[1] It is situated in the town centre, below Down Cathedral and the site of Saint Patrick's grave and is open all year round.

[3] In the exhibition, entitled Ego Patricius, Saint Patrick's own words are used to illuminate the arrival of Christianity in Ireland and its development through his mission.

[1] The exhibition uses a multi-media approach and state-of-the art technology to focus on the historical Saint Patrick and not on the legends, as well as a film shown in the purpose-built cinema.

A range of scholars and political leaders from Europe and the United States are committed to supporting the continuing work of the Centre.
