ABOUT SAINT EMMA

Kindness is another name for Countess Hemma of Gurk, the first Slovenian female saint, which, as the patroness of the poor, instilled herself into the hearts of the people of this land, with her grace, compassion, and generosity. Benefactress Hemma from the influential family of Breže-Seliški was the last of their bloodline. She was the founder of the convent in Gurk, in Austrian Carinthia, and the owner of the territory on which Podsreda Castle stands today. Legend has it that she was born in the nearby town of Pilštanj around 980. A memorial room is dedicated to her in Podsreda Castle, which our guests can enjoy at any time during opening hours.
