Note 84 — BOOK II CONCERNING THE WARS AND MILITARY EXPLOITS OF CHARLES

A. J. (Arthur James) Grant translation

St Hemmeramm (or Emmeran, as the name is now usually written) was first a bishop in some Frankish see (possibly Poitiers) who about 649 went as a missionary to the idolaters of Bavaria. He was assassinated in 652 near Munich, on his road to Rome. A church in Regensburg is still called by his name.
