Agnes of Bohemia

Agnes of Bohemia, O.S.C. (Czech: Svatá Anežka Ceská, 20 January 1211 – 2 March 1282), also known as Agnes of Prague, was a medieval Bohemian princess who opted for a life of charity, mortification of the flesh and piety over a life of luxury and comfort.

Although she was venerated soon after her death, Agnes was not beatified or canonized for over 700 years.
