| Aanvullende informatie |
Ludmila of Bohemia was martyred in 921 AD on the orders of her own daughter-in-law, Drahomíra, who resented her influence over the young Wenceslaus — later canonized himself as the patron saint of Bohemia. Ludmila was strangled with her own veil at Tetín castle. She became the first Bohemian Christian martyr and was canonized within decades of her death.
The "Grandmother" subtitle refers to her role in secretly continuing Wenceslaus's Christian education after Drahomíra seized the regency and banned it. Niue has issued this piece as part of a broader series on medieval saints under its ongoing commemorative program with the New Zealand Mint.
