Ireland has a long history of piety and learning. Over the centuries many monastic settlements, such as Glendalough, Clonmacnoise, Melifont and others were buit around Ireland. People came from different parts of Europe to study in them and Irish people went from them to other parts of Europe. Ireland became known as the Land of Saints and Scholars.
