St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin
Saint Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin, also known as The National Cathedral and Collegiate Church of Saint Patrick, Dublin, or in the Irish language as ''Ard-Eaglais Naomh Pádraig'', founded in 1191, is the largest church in Ireland and one of Dublin's two Church of Ireland cathedrals. It has a 43-metre (140 feet) spire.〔Dublin: a historical and topographical account of the city, Samuel A. Ossory Fitzpatrick〕 Christ Church, the other cathedral, is the diocesan cathedral of the diocese of Dublin and Glendalough.
==Background==
Unusually, St Patrick's is not the seat of a bishop, as the Archbishop of Dublin has his seat in Christ Church Cathedral. Since 1870, the church has designated St Patrick's as the national cathedral for the whole of Ireland, drawing chapter members from each of the twelve dioceses of the Church of Ireland. The dean is the ordinary for the cathedral; this office has existed since 1219. The most famous office holder was Jonathan Swift.
