Mayor Muir along with other Mayors from Towns to form part of St Columbanus European Cultural Route at signing of agreement in Bobbio, Italy |
After leaving Bangor he was to play a pivotal role in the spread of Christianity in mainland Europe and it is fitting that he, the first person to use the term "European", will have this Cultural Route potentially covering up to seven nations, created on the back of his legacy.
The creation of this route will surely be a fitting testimony on a European scale to the man and his work.
