Confessor.
Descendant of the barbarian Huns, he converted his vassals to Christ and marvelously raised the culture of his kingdom, which he consecrated to the Virgin Mary and made fiefdom of the Holy See.
He was a charitable father of the poor. He deserved for himself and for his successors the title of Apostolic King and the privilege of carrying the raised cross before him.
He died on the day of the Virgin Mary, August 15, in the year 1038.
V: Saint Stephen.
