Hemma of Gurk (German: Hemma von Gurk; c. 980 – 29 June 1045), also called Emma of Gurk (Slovene: Ema Krška), was a noblewoman, Fürstin (princess) and founder of several churches and monasteries in the Duchy of Carinthia. Buried at Gurk Cathedral since 1174, she was beatified on 21 November 1287 and canonised on 5 January 1938 by Pope Pius XI. Her feast day is 27 June. Hemma is venerated as a saint by both the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church, and as patroness of the current Austrian state of Carinthia.
