medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
From: Phyllis Jestice <[log in to unmask]>
> Today (2. July) is the feast day of:
> Monegundis (d. 570) Monegundis was a native of Chartres. She turned
> to the religious life after her two daughters died, building an
> anchorhold in the town, where she lived with no furniture and very
> little food. People were attracted when she started performing
> miraculous healings, so she moved to Tours, where she lived in a cell
> near the shrine of St. Martin. A number of women joined her, forming
> the convent of Saint-Pierre-le-Puellier around her cell. Her tomb
> was a popular pilgrimage cite until the shrine was destroyed by
> Huguenots in 1562.
