Saint Hyacinth, called "The Apostle of The North", was born in 1185 at the Castle of Kamin, near Breslau, (now Wroclaw, Poland).
Having gone to Rome, he was received there into The Order of Friar Preachers, by its Founder, Saint Dominic, in the Church of Saint Sabina. At the age of thirty-three, he was made Superior of The Mission which this Saint sent to Poland.
Saint Hyacinth then went over to Austria, Poland, Denmark, Scotland, and Livonia, everywhere Preaching The Word of God, which his numerous Miracles confirmed.
He died on The Feast of The Assumption (15 August) in 1257.
