Saints Cyril and Methodius Day
Saints Cyril and Methodius were brothers from Thessaloniki, in the Byzantine empire, who became missionaries to the Slavs in the ninth century. They created the Glagolitic alphabet, the oldest known Slavic script, and translated the liturgy and parts of the Bible into Old Church Slavonic, an achievement that laid the foundation of Slavic literature and the Cyrillic script that was later developed by their disciples. They are venerated in both the Catholic and the Orthodox churches. Their work gave the Slavic peoples a written language of their own for the first time, and the script's later forms are still used today in a large part of the world.
In 863 they went to Great Moravia, a state covering parts of the present Czech Republic and Slovakia, at the request of its ruler, Rastislav. The brothers are honoured as the apostles of the Slavs, and Pope John Paul II named them co-patrons of Europe in 1980. The day is a public holiday in Czechia and Slovakia, a day of celebration of Slavic culture and language in North Macedonia, and a day of cultural events in Bulgaria on 24 May. Many towns hold festivals with folk music, pilgrimages and church services, particularly in Velehrad, in Moravia, which is the main place of the brothers' memory.
