Saint Cunera was a fourth-century virgin and martyr whose life is preserved through later legends. According to tradition, she was a princess from the Orkney Islands who survived the massacre of Saint Ursula's companions. She eventually resided in Rhenen, where she was known for her compassion toward the poor. Her life ended when she was strangled by a queen using a scarf, an act motivated by jealousy. She is recognized as a saint in the Catholic tradition and is commemorated on June 12.
