Saint '''Albert of Louvain''' or '''Albert of Leuven''' (c. 1166 [[Duchy of Brabant|Brabant]] – 24 November 1192 – some say 24 November 1191, or 1202 – [[Rheims]]) was Prince-[[Bishop of Liège]] from 22 September 1191 till January 1192. He was [[canonize]]d in 1613. |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
He was a son of [[Godfrey III of Leuven, Duke of Lower Lotharingia|Godfrey III, Count of Leuven]], and brother of [[Henry I, Duke of Brabant|Henry I, Duke of Lorraine and Brabant]], and was chosen [[Bishop of Liège]] in 1191 by the people and the Church. [[Henry VI, Holy Roman Emperor|Emperor Henry VI]] proposed his own choice, causing Albert to journey to Rome to appeal to [[Pope Celestine III|Celestine III]]. The pope ordained him a deacon and sent him to the [[Archbishop of Rheims]]. The archbishop ordained Albert a priest and consecrated him as a bishop. Outside of Rheims, Albert was accosted by eight followers of [[Henry VI, Holy Roman Emperor|Henry VI]], who stabbed him to death. It is unsure in what year Albert was killed. |
|||
His feast day is 21 November. His body reposed at Rheims until 1612, when the [[Archduke Albert (1559-1621)|Archduke Albert of Austria]] had the body moved to [[Brussels]]. His relics were shared with the Cathedral of [[Liège]] in 1822. |
