AD 1 (I), 1 AD or 1 CE is the epoch year for the Anno Domini calendar era. It was a common year starting on Saturday or Sunday,^{[note 1]} a common year starting on Saturday by the proleptic Julian calendar, and a common year starting on Monday by the proleptic Gregorian calendar. In its time, year 1 was known as the Year of the Consulship of Caesar and Paullus, named after Roman consuls Gaius Caesar and Lucius Aemilius Paullus, and less frequently, as year 754 AUC (ab urbe condita) within the Roman Empire. The denomination "AD 1" for this year has been in consistent use since the mid-medieval period when the anno Domini (AD) calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years. It was the beginning of the Christian/Common era. The preceding year is 1 BC; there is no year 0 in this numbering scheme.

The Julian calendar, which replaced the Roman calendar in 45 BC, was the calendar used by Rome in AD 1.
