Duleek began as an early Christian monastic settlement. St. Patrick is believed to have established a bishopric here around 450 AD, which he entrusted to St. Cianan on 24 November 489.[2] St. Cianan is reputed to have established the first stone church in Ireland at Duleek. The name "Duleek" comes from the Irish Damhliag Chianian, meaning "the stone house of Cianan".[2]

Duleek is mentioned, in the Annals of Ulster, as one of the four largest monastic communities in Ireland, alongside Armagh, Derry, and Clonmacnoise.[3]

At the Synod of Rathbrassil in 1111, the territory of Meath was divided into two dioceses: Clonard Monastery and Duleek. The Synod of Kells in 1152 further shaped the diocese, merging the bishoprics of Clonard, Kells, and Duleek into what roughly survives today.[4] The diocesan crest bears three mitres, representing these ancient bishoprics.
