    We all know today is St. Patrick's day but can you tell me where St. George came from?

    Question #30066. Asked by I luv pink.

    Gnomon

    Gnomon says:

    St George was born in Cappadocia, which is in what is now called Turkey but was called Anatolia at the time. He died in Palestine.

    St George never visited England. He was adopted as patron saint of England long after he died.
