According to legend, Edigna was a daughter of Henry I of France and Anne of Kiev,[1] and was born Шаблон:Circa.[2] In 1074, at the age of 19,[3] she fled to Bavaria on a farmer's bullock cart to escape an arranged marriage.[1] The farmer stopped in Puch, Fürstenfeldbruck, where a rooster in the cart crowed and a bell rang. Edigna took this as a sign that she should leave the cart. She remained in Puch until her death on 26 February, 1109, living as a hermit in a hollowed-out linden tree and revered by the people as a miracle worker.[1] She did not reveal her royal background, but it was discovered after her death.[3] When she died, holy oil flowed from the tree, but it dried up when attempts were made to sell it.[1]
In 1347, a document related to the death of Louis IV near Puch contained the first known written mention of Edigna. In 1624, Matthäus Rader examined her corpse and subsequently wrote a biography of her.[2] Edigna was beatified in the Catholic Church in 1600.[3] In 1976, a grave in the church was discovered, which could have been the burial site of Edigna.[1]
Henry I of France and Anne of Kiev are known to have had four children, named Phillip, Robert, Hugo, and Emma. However, Emma and Edigna may be the same person, because few details about Emma are known.[4]
In the modern day
A street in Puch called the Шаблон:Lang leads past the local Church of St. Sebastian, in which an altar is dedicated to Edigna, and past a linden tree.[1]
A linden tree in Puch called the Шаблон:Lang, said to be the same tree in which Edigna lived, is near the town cemetery. Julius Langbehn, a German nationalist and antisemite who admired Edigna, was buried near the tree in 1907 at his own request; a nearby street is also named after him.[5]
