Agan (Eichstätt)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Agan († November 6, 822  ?) Was Bishop of Eichstätt from 806 (?) To 822 (?).

Agan probably came as his two successors also, from the Bavarian dynasty of Roninger . The name-giving headquarters is Roning , located between Regensburg and Landshut . Wilhelm Störmer and Stefan Weinfurter support the thesis of this origin. The three bishops are considered relatives of Count Helmuni. The Roninger family founded the Schliersee monastery and Eichstätt can be regarded as the family's house diocese at this time . Agan is documented in a few documents. The day of his death, without a year, comes from the Pontifical Gundekarianum .
