Eingang des Irish College in Löwen

Catholic religious migrants from England and Ireland founded several seminaries on the continent, known as colleges, at which priests and missionaries were educated in order to return to and serve in their native countries. Besides future priests, the colleges also offered places to sons of the Catholic aristocracy as law students. The colleges were important centres of religion and learning. The Hebrew scholar Gregory Martin, the principal translator of the Douai Bible (based on the Latin Vulgate) into English, taught at the college of Reims.
