Chieftain Bulcsú as depicted in the Nádasdy Mausoleum in 1664

Bulcsú (or Vérbulcsú, Шаблон:Lang-gr); died 10 August 955) was a Hungarian chieftain, one of the military leaders of prince Taksony of Hungary, a descendant of Árpád. He held the title of horka. He was one of the most important figures of the Hungarian invasions of Europe. During these military campaigns, the Magyars threatened much of Western Europe; therefore a common saying at that time was "A sagittis Hungarorum, libera nos Domine" (Lord, save us from the arrows of the Hungarians") Modena, 925 AD Шаблон:Citation needed.

In 948, Bulcsú visited the court of Byzantine Emperor Constantine VII, where he was received with a great pomp. Bulcsú adopted Christianity, the emperor became his godfather. He was a "guest friend of the Byzantine emperor" and was awarded the title of "Roman patrician".[1][2][3]

After his army had lost the disastrous Battle of Lechfeld in 955, he was caught by the German victors and executed.[4]
