Biography
Saint Wuna of Wessex (also known as Wunna, Winna, Wina, and Bonna) was a 7th and 8th-century Anglo-Saxon noblewoman and Christian saint.
According to Christian tradition, Wuna was the wife of Saint Richard the Pilgrim and the mother of Saint Willibald, Saint Walpurga, and Saint Winibald. She was from a noble family in Wessex. Some scholars have argued that she was a sister of Saint Boniface.
She is venerated in the Catholic Church with a feast day on 7 February. She died around the year 710.
