!!!Romedius, Heiliger

Romedius, Saint, feast day January 15, lived as a hermit on 
Nonsberg mountain (South Tyrol) in the 11th century; probably a member 
of the Andechser family. In 1795, permission was given to read masses 
in his name in the diocese of Brixen/Bressanone, which at that time 
included the Northern Tyrol. His relics used to be kept at 
Georgenberg-Fiecht, but were given to the parish of Thaur (Tyrol) in 
1851 and are now kept at the pilgrimage church of St. Peter and St. 
Paul (Romedikirche).
