Comment
Elisabeth of Hungary or Elisabeth of Thuringia (Presburg, July 7, 1207 - Marburg, November 17, 1231) was a ruler of Thuringia, member of the Franciscan Third Order and recognized as a saint by the Catholic Church. Her feast day is November 17. The Teutonic Order built a Gothic church to house her relics. The relics attracted large crowds, making Marburg a major pilgrimage center in the Christian West.
