Summary/Abstract: The chronology of life and works of St. Bruno of Querfurt has few certain points of reference. One of the most certain is his expedition from Ruthenia to the Pechenegs’ country, dated by W. Meysztowicz to 22 February 1008 and accepted by later literature. The present paper both rejects the date proposed by Meysztowicz and suggested another date, 29 June 1008. Changing the date of his expedition to the Pechenegs by over four months has far-reaching implications for both the chronology of the last years of Bruno, and for dating his works. The remaining part of the paper is devoted to initial discussion of those implications.
