Saint Margaret of Scotland

Margaret (c. 1045–1093) was an English princess born in exile in Hungary. She married King Malcolm III of Scotland in 1070 and raised eight children, three of whom became kings. She founded churches, invited monks to Scotland and fed orphans and the poor at her own table every day. She died days after her husband was killed in battle.

Saint Margaret's Chapel in Edinburgh Castle is the oldest building in the city, and the town of Queensferry is named after the ferry she set up for pilgrims. Saint Gertrude the Great is also remembered today.
