Hildegard of Bingen (German: Hildegard von Bingen; Latin: Hildegardis Bingensis; c. 1098 - 17 September 1179), also known as Saint Hildegard and the Sibyl of the Rhine, was a German Benedictine abbess and polymath active as a writer, composer, philosopher, mystic, visionary, and as a medical writer and practitioner during the High Middle Ages. She is one of the best-known composers of sacred monophony, as well as the most recorded in modern history. She has been considered by scholars to be the founder of scientific natural history in Germany.Hildegard's convent elected her as Magistra (mother superior) in 1136. She founded the monasteries of Rupertsberg in 1150 and Eibingen in 1165. Hildegard wrote theological, botanical, and medicinal works, as well as letters, hymns, and antiphons for the liturgy. She wrote poems and supervised miniature illuminations in the Rupertsberg manuscript of her first work, Scivias. There are more surviving chants by Hildegard than by any other composer from the entire Middle Ages, and she is one of the few known composers to have written both the music and the words. One of her works, the Ordo Virtutum, is an early example of liturgical drama and arguably the oldest surviving morality play.

About St. Jospeh National Shrine: Built with the gifts of the Slovenian people, the church had to wait a long time for the interior to be arranged. In May 1941, a magnificent main altar with a statue of St. Jožef (made by sculptor Božidar Pengov). But this decoration only enriched the church for a short time. In 1949, the post-war authorities confiscated it, together with the two houses and all other property, in the pursuit of the Jesuits. On April 23, 1949, the two priests took the Blessed Sacrament to the cathedral. The next day, Holy Sunday, the bells no longer invited us to worship... During the visit of John Paul II. in 1996, it was returned again and now it is renewed waiting for the blessing. It housed a film studio in the post-war years. It was rebuilt and damaged, so the state restored it and returned it to its former beauty.
