It is being undertaken by the Wild Geese Festival committee in Limerick which will mark the 330rd anniversary of the historic treaty in 2021.
Part of that treaty was that over 10,000 Jacobite soldiers and their families were to be exiled to France along with Sarsfield, who then went on to fight for France in wars against the British. But it is with Limerick that Sarsfield's name is mostly associated and is synonymous with city landmarks, such as Sarsfield Bridge, Sarsfield barracks and Sarsfield house.
"2021 marks the 330rd anniversary of the siege of Limerick and the project to bring Patrick Sarsfield home is timely in that regard. He was an important figure in Irish and French history but he died in a country not of his choosing. It is an ambitious project but we believe an important one," he said.
