Armagh is a city in Northern Ireland, the county town of County Armagh. Armagh was granted a Royal Charter by Queen Elizabeth II in 1994, and City status was officially re-conferred in 1995. Armagh is the least populated city in both Northern Ireland and the island of Ireland. It had a population of 14,590 people in the 2001 Census.

Armagh is often branded internationally as the ecclesiastical capital of Ireland, in that both the Catholic Church in Ireland as well as the Church of Ireland (an anglican church) are based in the city. Both confusingly have cathedrals in the city named in memory of St. Patrick.
