Summary/Abstract: Among the Irish missionaries who successfully preached the gospel on the European continent there is also, undoubtedly, St. Virgil. Born in Dublin, St. Virgil first distinguished himself in the Frankish Kingdom, after which he arrived in Bavarian territory. During his 40 years of episcopate in Salzburg, St. Virgil uplifted the moral life of his diocese, built the cathedral in Salzburg and took care of the mission in the territory of Kärnten. He is celebrated every year by the Orthodox on November 27.
