So when is St David's Day? Here in Wales on the 1st of March we celebrate St David’s Day, which commemorates the anniversary of Saint David's death in 589 AD.
Interestingly, a survey made available by CADW (CADW is responsible in Wales for protecting historic buildings and structures, landscapes and heritage sites) suggests that a surprisingly high number of adults in Wales are not familiar why the country celebrates St David’s Day, which prompted us at FelinFach to reveal 10 interesting facts about our Welsh Patron.
