There are no records or reliable accounts to suggest that Saint Patrick went to jail in his lifetime. He is known for his missionary work in Ireland and is credited with popularizing Christianity in the region.
In Ireland, it is a holy day, so people go to mass. They will also pray. Some might visit graves or go to places associated with St. Patrick, like the mountains Croagh Patrick and Slemish mountain.
St. Patrick was a real historical person, the first Bishop of Ireland and the main propagator of the Christian faith there in the fifth century a.d. The feast of St. Patrick is celebrated throughout the Roman Catholic church on March 17th. In Ireland it is a holy day of obligation, which means all Catholics in Ireland must go to Mass on that day. It's a little bit ironic that his feast is regarded as an occasion for beer-drinking and general revelry, since the saint himself was a great ascetic and spent more than a month at a time alone on a rocky island, fasting and praying.
Well, isn't that a happy little question! Saint Patrick's father, Calpornius, was a deacon and a local official in Roman Britain. He played a significant role in shaping Saint Patrick's early life and spiritual journey. Just like how a painter adds different colors to create a beautiful picture, Calpornius added love and guidance to Saint Patrick's life, helping him become the inspiring figure we know today.
The first trip to Ireland at the age of 16 was not of his free will. He was kidnapped in Britain and sold as a slave in Ireland. The second trip to Ireland was under orders from Pope Celestine I who sent him there as a bishop and missionary.

The first time he went to Ireland was against his will, as he was kidnapped and was brought to Ireland to be a slave. While there, he found that the Irish people did not know about Christianity. After escaping from Ireland, he later felt a calling to go back to Ireland and preach Christianity to the people of Ireland.
He never really retired and continued to work in Ireland even in his old age.
