Paschal I (Chur)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paschal I (* in the 7th century; † unknown) was Bishop of Chur and at the same time praesides Rhaetiae .

Paschalis is the first bishop to be mentioned again in literature. Under the Frankish rule over Rhaetia , the "praesides Rhaetiae" and the bishops of Chur descended from the same noble family. Paschalis was both praesides Rhaetiae and bishop of Chur.

In the Caziz monastery or in the Rhaetzis monastery in Domleschger Thal there is an inscription: "Victor, Bishop of Chur [is] the founder of this monastery at the same time as his mother, and with her Paschalis, Bishop of Chur, its creator and predecessor."

«Bishop Paschalis lived in marriage and was his husband Frauw Esopeia, a née Countess von Hohen Realt, whose many stories were written in old instruments and letters: In them they often signed and even Antistitam Curiensem, who is a head of the churches, called Chur. These two husbands married two wives and a son, who was called Victor, whom, when he was still a priest, his father, the Bishop Paschalis, became an heir of all his goods in Tumiliasca, that is Domlaschg and other places on the Rheyn inserted, as such is understood in a very long and old letter from the pen of Catz. He, like his father and mother, are the first founders of a nunnery in the Domläschg down to the Heinzenberg, lying in the ground, called Caz: which, in addition to the foundation letters, is also understood by a heading about Bishop Victorem: Victor Episopus Curiensis una cum matre sua fundator huius monasterii, et cum Paschalis, Episcopus Curiensis, genitor et antecessor eius.
