Saint Aegidius of Sansepolcro

Saint Aegidius of Sansepolcro, also known as Egidio or Giles, was a 10th-century Catholic saint and pilgrim. He is known for his dedication to collecting relics during a pilgrimage to Palestine, which he brought back to Italy and used to establish a Benedictine monastery, later known as Borgo San Sepulcro (modern Sansepolcro). Born in Spain, little is known about the early life of Saint Aegidius....
