However, the famous generosity of Romanians also showed itself on the outside.

The initial pages shall consider exclusively the foundation or the donation deed, in the case of monastic buildings in the former Yugoslavia.

A bishop in the Le Mans Bishopric in the 4th century, Saint Liborius distinguished himself by a life lived in parsimony and a fruitful missionary activity. He is held responsible for the building of several churches in the Le Mans Bishopric, also being worshipped as a passionate rescuer of the sick and poor. His relics were moved to Paderborn in the 9th century, to later become the patron of this Bishopric.

Saint Liborius is celebrated on the 23rd of July, in the Orthodox and Catholic Churches.
