Oton of Pula (original) (raw)

Oton of Pula (late 12th century or early 13th century – December 14, 1241), was a Franciscan priest active in Istria. Medieval sources attribute to him many miraculous healings. The people from Pula and its surroundings started worshiping him, invoking him as a blessed, although the church did not confirm his beatification. Oton's ethnicity is not known. Luke Wadding called him illirico. Friar Petar of Trogir writing in 1305, on the other hand, called him Teutonic.
