Saint Adelgonde (or Aldegonde) (Latin: Aldegundis or Adelgundis) was a Frankish saint and abbess (c. 639–684). She was closely related to the Merovingian royal family. Her father and mother, afterwards honoured as Saint Walbert, count of Guînes, and Saint Bertilia, lived in Flanders in the province of Hainault. She is the most famous of what Aline Hornaday calls the "Maubeuge Cycle" of Merovingian saints.[1]
