Who was Saint Casimir? – Prince of virtue, purity and devotion

Saint Casimir lived in the 15th century as a royal prince of the Jagiellonian dynasty and became known for his profound piety, humility and compassion for the poor. He was deeply devoted to prayer, often spending long hours in contemplation before the Blessed Sacrament. Known for his purity of heart, he refused political marriage proposals, choosing instead to dedicate his life to God. He generously helped the sick and the poor, giving much of his personal belongings to those in need. Although he died young at 25, he left behind a legacy of holiness and integrity that spread widely across Central Europe. Today he is venerated as the patron saint of purity, conscientious living, youth, and both Poland and Lithuania.
