  • Grata of Bergamo (early 4th century) is an Italian saint and martyr, and sister of Asteria of Bergamo. Her parents were Saint Lupo of Bergamo and Saint Adelaide, duke and duchess of Bergamo. According to hagiographer Agnes B.C. Dunbar, Grata's husband was "a great king in Germany". She did not become a Christian until after his death, when she converted her parents to Christianity and persuaded them to build the cathedral of Bergamo. She became known as a holy woman in Bergamo, "especially for her zeal in securing Christian burial for the bodies of martyrs". She built three churches and a hospital for the poor in Begamo. She and her sister Asteria buried the body of St. Alexander of Rome, after Grata wrapped his head in a napkin. After her parents' death, she governed Bergamo "with wisdom and benevolence". Grata was put to death for burying Alexander. Her feast day is September 4. She is the co-patron of the city of Bergamo. St. Grata seems to have been a popular subject for female writers, being the subject of a 1596 biography by Flavia Grumelli and a 1723 one by the nun Maria Aurelia Tassis. The Church of San Grata Inter Vites (in English, "among the vines") because it was surrounded by vineyards until 17th century in Bergamo, where she was buried until 1000 CE, is dedicated in her honor. Her body was moved to another church, also named for her, inside the city's walls. (en)

  • Грата — святая из Бергамо. День памяти — 12 мая. Согласно давнему преданию, святая Грата, дочь Лупо, правителя Бергамо, и Аделины жила между IV и VI веками. Её сестрой была святая Астерия, дева и мученица, поминаемая 10 августа. Святая Грата через несколько дней после казни святого Александра, обрела его останки, вокруг которых в нескольких каплях крови расцвели лилии, собрала их и похоронила в саду за пределами города. Согласно иному преданию святая Грата жила между VIII и IX веками, и была дочерью Лупо, лангобардского герцога Бергамо, завоеванного Карлом Великим и обращенного в католическую веру. Вероятно, предания относятся к двум различным святым. Согласно первому преданию, святая Грата построила три бергамских церкви в честь святого Александра: , и еще один храм на гробнице святого (базилика и древний собор Святого Александра, который был снесен в 1561 году во время строительства). Согласно другой традиции, святая Грата при содействии своей могущественной семьи и других благородных семей Бергамо построилацеркви на каждом из трех холмов города: святой , святого Иоанна Богослова и святого Стефана (ставшую впоследствии храмом Христа Спасителя). После обращения родителей и мужа святая Грата осталась вдовой и посвяла себя служение больным и нуждающимся в больнице, которую она основала. (ru)
