His grave is said to be in Ireland. But different experts have different opinions about the grave of SATA clause.
Some say, his tomb is inside St. Nicholas Church in Antalya, Turkey. While historians of Ireland say that the grave of Santa Claus was brought back from Turkey and buried in Italy.
Became a priest at a very young age
