Godelieve
Person (Saint)
Flemish saint
Saint Godelieve (also known as Godeleva, Godeliève, and Godelina; Dutch: Sint-Godelieve) (c. 1052 – 6 July 1070) is a Flemish saint. She behaved with charity and gentleness to all, accepting an arranged marriage as was the custom, but her husband and family turned out to be abusive. Eventually he had her strangled by his servants.
Every year, on the Sunday following 5 July, a procession celebrating Saint Godelieve takes place in Gistel.
