Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The stalls of the Knights of St Patrick in St Patrick's Cathedral The Most Illustrious Order of St Patrick was founded by King George III in 1783 as an honour for the more influential peers in Ireland. It was to be similar in structure to the Order of the Garter in England and the Scottish Order of the Thistle. St Patrick's Cathedral was the Chapel of the Order and the Great Hall in Dublin Castle, now known as St Patrick's Hall, was the Chancery where Knights were normally installed and where banquets were held on St Patrick's Day. The first installation took place in the Cathedral on 17 March 1783. The last great ceremony held in the St Patrick's was in 1868 when the Prince of Wales was invested as a knight. At the disestablishment of the Church of Ireland in 1871, the Order was secularised and the association with St Patrick's Cathedral ceased. |
