St. Radegund was a Thuringian princess and Frankish queen of the Merovingian dynasty during the height of the Dark Ages. She is also remembered as an early Frankish saint of the Catholic Church. Among other accomplishments, she founded the major Abbey of the Holy Cross at Poitiers and Jesus College of Cambridge University. Her biography is told her by the Latin poet St. Venantius Fortunatus, then a hymnographer at the court of the Frankish kings.
