Notizen zu dieser Person
Also called St. Hermenegild. Hermenegild II "the Holy" was born circa 555. He was the son of Leovigild I, King of Spain and Theodosia of Cartagena. He married Ingonde des Francs, daughter of Sigibertus I, rex Austrasii and Brunechildis the Visigoth, in 579; Ingund was in fact the cousin, once removed, of Hermenegild. Her mother's father was the uncle of Hermenegild. He renounced his arian faith for Catholicism after 579. This conversion would be the cause of revolt and his eventual death. He died on 13 April 585 in Tarragona, Spain. Beheaded by his father, Leovigild, for betraying him. His betrayal was to marry an zealous orthodox catholic, Ingund, and convert from arianism. Hermenegild rebelled with the help of Byzantium. Leovigild bribed Byzantium to betray his son and Hermenegild was thus captured and killed. "Most contemporary writers suggested that Hermenegild was executed as a rebel, but Pope Gregory I, in his Dialogues, stated that he was killed for refusing to receive communion from an Arian bishop." He was was canonized in 1585. "His cult was subsequently authorized for Spain by Pope Sixtus V and for the whole church by Urban VIII."
