Aymard Of Cluny
Aymard of Cluny, also known as Aymardus of Cluny was the third abbot of Cluny. His feast day is 5 October. Election Very little is known about his life and the only references come from the biographies of Odo of Cluny or Majolus of Cluny. Odo, the second Abbot of Cluny spent a great deal of time in Italy in the last five years of his life. It is thought that Aymardus must have been appointed as Odo's replacement in running the monastery during this time while he was gone. When Odo died in the year 942, the other monks of Cluny wanted their prior, Hildebrand to become Abbot, but Hildebrand refused to become abbot. So they elected Aymardus to be abbot instead. On the day of his election, Aymardus was supposedly seen entering the monastery leading a horse carrying fish, and the monks were so struck by the sight that they immediately elected him abbot. Abbot of Cluny Like Odo and Berno before him, Aymardus also was devoted to upholding the Rule of St Benedict in an unstained form. ...

History This fief also included the advowson of the church of Verdun over its possessions along the river Moselle. According to a chronist's report, written around the year 900, the Merovingian king Childebert II (575–596) came to visit Verdun. There was not enough wine to serve the monarch and the Bishop Agericus was very embarrassed. However God rewarded him for his good deeds and miraculously increased the amount of wine. The king presented Agericus of Verdun with the Schloss Veldenz as a fief of Verdun "because of the wine". Around 1156 Frederick Barbarossa confirmed the holding by Bishop Albert I of Verdun of the castle together with t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
