About Marcin
Lived 1250 – 1321 (aged 70–71). Marcin was a catholic priest and catholic bishop.
Marcin (died 1321) was the first auxiliary bishop of Kraków and a Auxiliary Bishop in Olomouc.
Biography Marcin is considered the first auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Kraków. He came from the Franciscan order. Marcin was appointed bishop of Belgrade (Latin: Nanduralbensis) by Pope Nicholas IV around 1290. However, due to the prevailing schism at the time, he was unable to assume the episcopate (also his successors, until 1380, did not actually exercise their functions). His stay in the Diocese of Kraków was probably quite short, for as early as 1306 he travelled with Bishop Antal from Csanad to Padua. He later served as Auxiliary Bishop in Olomouc. He died in a Franciscan monastery at Brno in Moravia in 1321.
