Coats of arms showing St. Emeric of Hungary.
Prince St. Imre, also Henricus, Emeric, Emerick, Emmerich, Emericus or Americus (Székesfehérvár (Hungary), about 1000 to 1007 – 2 September 1031) was the son of King St. Stephen I of Hungary and Giselle of Bavaria.
Emeric was educated in a strict and ascetic spirit by the bishop of Csanád, St. Gerhard (St. Gellért) from the age of 15 to 23. He was intended to be the next monarch of Hungary, and his father wrote admonitions to prepare him for this task. His father tried to make Emeric co-heir still in his lifetime.
But his father's plans could never be fulfilled: on 2 September 1031, at age 24, Emeric was killed by a boar while hunting. He was buried in the church of Székesfehérvár. Several wondrous healings and conversions happened at his grave, so on 5th November 1083 King Ladislaus I unearthed Emeric's bones in a big ceremony, and Emeric was canonised for his pious life and purity along with his father and Bishop Gerhard by Pope Gregory VII.
St. Emeric is most often pictured in knight's armour with crown and lily. By clicking on the image, it will be enlarged. To go to the page(s) where the image is being used, follow the links under the heading File usage at the bottom of the image page.
