St. Brigid's Well, Doneyloop, Castlefinn, Co. Donegal 3 Feb 2019 v1
St. Brigid (Irish: Naomh Bríd) is also known as Mary of the Gael or Muire na nGael aka Our Lady of the Irish. She is one of the Patron Saints of Ireland, along with St Patrick and St Columcille.
Born in Dundalk in 450 AD St Brigid was the founder of the first monastery in County Kildare, Ireland. Her father was a pagan chieftain of Leinster and her mother was a Christian. St Patrick inspired her to become a Catholic and spread the word of God. Legend has it, people used to make crosses from rushes to hang over the door of their homes to ward off evil, fire and hunger. Over time, word spread about St Brigid, her kindness, faith and the making of the cross became synonymous with her and the tradition now bears her name, the St. Brigid Cross.
