!Note: In French “En vage” means “Travelling”. Possibilities include: St.. Christopher, St.. Brigid of Ireland, St.. Bona of Pisa, St.. Joseph of Cupertino, St. Nicolas and St. Gertrude of Nivelles.
-
St. Christopher is often depicted with a dog's head. This is a reference to Anubis, symbolic equivalent of the ferryman of souls between the two worlds.
-
St. Gertrude of Nivelles’ remains are buried in the abbey church of St.. Peter, which takes the name of St.. Gertrude Church in Nivelles. Then the pilgrims spread her cult throughout Europe, so that she becomes the patron saint of travelers and many churches, chapels and hospitals along major trade routes of the Holy Roman Empire are under her patronage. From the second half of the eleventh century to the fourteenth century, a Germanic custom, called Gertrudisminne, was to drink a cup of wine in honor of St.. Gertrude before leaving on a trip or in a military expedition .
