Βριγίτη της Σουηδίας

Η Bridget of Sweden (1303 - 23 Ιουλίου 1373 ; γεννημένη ως Birgitta Birgersdotter, επίσης Birgitta of Vadstena, ή Saint Birgitta ; σουηδικά : heliga Birgitta) ήταν αγία και ιδρύτρια των Bridgettines, μιας θρησκευτικής τάξης για καλόγριες και καλόγερους, μετά τον θάνατο του επί είκοσι χρόνια συζύγου της. Έξω από τα σύνορα της Σουηδίας, ήταν γνωστή ως Princess of Nericia και μητέρα της Catherine of Vadstena. (Παρόλο που ονομαζόταν Bridget of Sweden, δεν ήταν μέλος της σουηδικής αριστοκρατίας.) Είναι μια από τους έξι σημαντικότερους αγίους στην Ευρώπη, μαζί με τους Βενέδικτο τον εκ Νουρσίας, Αγίους Κύριλο και Μεθόδιο, Αικατερίνη της Σιένα και Έντιθ Στάιν.
