Elizabeth of Hungary was a 13th-century princess of the Árpád dynasty who served as an abbess and a queen consort. Born around 1255 in the Kingdom of Hungary, she was placed in a Dominican monastery during her early childhood. Although she lived much of her life as a nun, she was twice married, first to the Bohemian magnate Záviš of Falkenstein and later to the Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin. Following her monastic service, she was recognized as a blessed figure by the Catholic Church.
