Santo Brendan dari Clonfert adalah salah satu santo biara awal Irlandia.^[1] Ia lahir pada 484 di Ciarraighe Luachra, provinsi Munster, daerah barat laut Irlandia.^[1] Ia dibaptis di Tubrid, dekat Ardfert dan ditahbiskan menjadi pastor pada 512.^[1] Di antara 512 hingga 530, ia membangun sebuah biara di kaki Gunung Randon.^[1] Setelah biara tersebut selesai dibangun, ia melakukan perjalanan selama tujuh tahun untuk mencari Surga.^[1] Dalam Navigatio, diceritakan bahwa ia melakukan perjalanan beserta dengan beberapa rahib lainnya untuk mencari terra repromissionis sanctorum ("Tanah Perjanjian Bagi Para Santo" atau juga disebut sebagai "Surga di Bumi").^[2] Setelah itu, ia melakukan perjalanan ke Wales, lalu ke Iona sebelum kembali lagi ke Irlandia dan membangun sebuah biara di Annaghdown, tempat ia menghabiskan sisa hidupnya di sana.^[1] Sebelum kematiannya pada 577, karena khawatir jasadnya kelak dijadikan relikui oleh para pengikutnya, ia sudah merencanakan agar jasadnya dibawa secara diam-diam ke biara yang ia bangun di Clonfert dengan menggunakan kereta barang serta dimakamkan di sana.^[3]
