Orangemen's Day, also known as The Twelfth, is observed every July 12 by Irish Protestants, primarily in Northern Ireland. This day commemorates the 1690 victory of Protestant King William of Orange over Catholic King James II at the Battle of the Boyne, a significant event in Protestant history. The holiday is marked by parades and community events organized by the Orange Order, a Protestant fraternal organization founded in 1795. Cultural institutions, such as the Ulster Museum, often feature exhibitions related to Irish history and the Battle of the Boyne, promoting public education on the topic. The Corrymeela Community, dedicated to peace and reconciliation, encourages dialogue around the historical significance of the day. Overall, Orangemen's Day focuses on historical reflection and community engagement rather than commercial activities.
