Description
Elizabeth of Hungary (German: Heilige Elisabeth von Thüringen, Hungarian: Árpád-házi Szent Erzsébet, Slovak: Svätá Alžbeta Uhorská; 7 July 1207 – 17 November 1231), also known as Elisabeth of Thuringia, was a princess of the Kingdom of Hungary and the landgravine of Thuringia.
Elizabeth was married at the age of 14, and widowed at 20. After her husband’s death, she regained her dowry, using the money to build a hospital where she herself served the sick. She became a symbol of Christian charity after her death in 1231 at the age of 24 and was canonized on 25 May 1235. She is venerated as a saint by the Catholic Church. She was an early member of the Third Order of St. Francis, and is today honored as its patroness.
Elizabeth was the daughter of King Andrew II of Hungary and Gertrude of Merania.[6] Her mother’s sister was Hedwig of Andechs, wife of Duke Henry I of Silesia.[7] Her ancestry included many notable figures of European royalty, going back as far as Vladimir the Great of the Kievan Rus’.
According to tradition, she was born in Hungary, possibly in the castle of Sárospatak, on 7 July 1207.[8][9][10] However, a sermon printed in 1497 by the Franciscan friar Osvaldus de Lasco, a church official in Hungary, is the first source to specifically name Sárospatak as Elizabeth’s birthplace, potentially building on local tradition. Osvaldus also translates the miracle of the roses to Elizabeth’s childhood in Sárospatak and has her leave Hungary at the age of five.[11]
According to a different tradition she was born in Pozsony, Hungary (present-day Bratislava, Slovakia), where she lived in the Castle of Posonium until the age of four. Elizabeth was brought to the court of the rulers of Thuringia in central Germany, to be betrothed to Louis IV, Landgrave of Thuringia[12] (also known as Ludwig IV), a future union which would reinforce political alliances between the two families.[a] She was raised by the Thuringian court and would have been familiar with the local language and culture.
In 1221, at the age of fourteen, Elizabeth married Louis; the same year he was enthroned as landgrave, and the marriage appears to have been happy.
