Hiberno-Scottish Mission

The Hiberno-Scottish Mission refers to the historical efforts of Irish Christian monks and missionaries from Ireland (Hibernia) and Scotland to spread Christianity and establish churches across continental Europe, especially in regions like Germany and Switzerland during the early medieval period. These missionaries played a vital role in converting pagan populations, promoting learning, and founding religious communities. Their work helped shape the development of Christianity in Europe and fostered cultural and educational exchanges between Ireland, Scotland, and mainland Europe.
