Stories of the Celtic Cross stretch far back through Ireland's long history. Though believed to be far older, the crosses are traditionally associated with St. Patrick. It's said Ireland's patron Saint once came across a pagan standing stone imprinted with a circle, the symbol of the Moon Goddess, which he proceeded to bless and mark with the Latin cross. Another tells of how he combined the Pagan symbol of the Sun with the Latin Cross to tie the two religions together, helping to ease the transition into Christianity. Whatever the truth, these famous crosses are still seen dotting the landscapes of the Celtic Nations to this day and are iconic symbols of Ireland.
