'''Saint Notburga''' (born c. 1265, died 13 September 1313) was an [[Saints|Austrian saint]] and peasant from [[Tyrol]], [[Austria]], revered for her charity and devotion to the poor. Born in Rattenberg, she worked as a kitchen maid for Count Henry of Rattenberg at Rottenburg Castle, where she secretly distributed food to the needy, defying her employer’s family. Dismissed for her generosity, she became a farmhand in Eben am Achensee, where her piety and miracles, notably the sickle suspended in the air to allow Mass attendance, earned her veneration.
