Image description

Saint Helena or Saint Helen (Latin: Flavia Iulia Helena Augusta; c. 250 – c. 330) was the consort of the Roman emperor Constantius Chlorus and the mother of the emperor Constantine the Great, an important figure in the history of Christianity and the world due to her influence on her son Constantine the Great and her own contributions in placing Christianity at the heart of Western Civilisation . She is traditionally credited with a pilgrimage to Syria Palaestina, during which she is claimed to have discovered the True Cross of Jesus's crucifixion.
