Jump to
Berthold of Garsten (died 1142), also known as Blessed Berthold, is believed to be of the family of the Counts of Bogen and Vögte of Regensburg Cathedral. He was to begin with a Benedictine monk at St. Blaise's Abbey in the Black Forest and was then, in 1107, appointed prior at Göttweig Abbey. He was entrusted by Ottokar II of Styria with the development of Garsten Abbey, of which he became the first abbot in 1111. In this post he distinguished himself by piety, kindness, devotion to his pastoral duties and organisational talent. Berthold introduced the Hirsau Reforms into Austria.
