Historical Usage
Saint Radegund, also Radegunda or Radegonde, was a Frankish princess who became a Merovingian queen and later a Benedictine abbess. She is best known for her role as a patron saint of the cities of Tours and Poitiers in France. She lived from 518 to 587 AD.
518-587 AD
Radegunda was the daughter of King Clovis I of the Franks and Clotilde, his sister and queen. She was married to the Thuringian king Hermanfred at the age of 12, but was taken as a prisoner when the Thuringians were defeated by Clovis. Radegunda lived as a captive for 15 years until she was ransomed by her brother Chilperic, who then married her himself. She became a Benedictine abbess and founded the monastery of the Holy Cross at Poitiers, where she spent the rest of her life.
