The harp is also a very important Irish symbol. In fact, it was so Irish, the British feared it would spark nationalism. Therefore, they banned all harps from the land - and executed all harp players!

The 'shamrock' is Ireland's most important symbol. Its three leaves stand for the Holy Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Ghost), linking it to St. Patrick.

Ireland, as Britain, has a lively 'pub culture'. The most famous Irish drink is Guinness, a stout beer.

Legend has it that in Ireland, at the end of a rainbow, you will find a pot of gold.

There are lots of sheep in Ireland. Irish woolen jumpers are a typical product you will find in tourist shops.

The tricolor Irish flag represents:

• Green: the Catholics
• Orange: the Protestants
• White: the peace between them/ hope for unity
  

Catholicism is the main religion in the Republic of Ireland.

This bird is called a 'puffin'  (papegaaiduiker). You'll find them mostly on the Atlantic coast. 

Leprechauns Spotted on the Beach!

Aran Island News - March 3, 1992

A fifteen-year-old spotted something strange at the beach. In an interview he tells us what happened. ‘I am walking home and I hear two voices on the beach. I walk over there to take a look, and see two figures dressed in green. They are wearing brown shoes. Suddenly they see me and they get up and run away. I go down to take a closer look and see that they forgot their pipe. I take it and bring it home. My mum hides it away safely in the kitchen drawer. The next morning I want to take the pipe to school to show it to my friends, but it is gone! The little men must have come to take it away!’

Please contact the Aran Island News if you see any strange, small men walking around our island.
