Blessed Ulrika Fransiska Nisch

Blessed Ulrika Fransiska Nisch, also known as Fransiska Dettenrieder and Ulrica Nisch, was born on 18 September 1882 in Oberdorf-Mittelbiberach, Germany. She was the oldest of eleven children born to Ulrich Nisch, a stable cleaner, and Klothilde Dettenrieder, a servant in a village inn. Due to their extreme poverty, their families and local authorities initially refused to allow their marriage. However, the birth of Fransiska forced them to confront the issue, and she was baptized just one day after her birth. Unfortunately, only four of Fransiska's siblings survived into adulthood.
