Saint Margaret of Scotland, also known as Margaret of Wessex, was a remarkable queen consort of Scotland from 1070 to 1093. Born around 1045 in Hungary, she was the daughter of the English prince Edward the Exile and his wife Agatha. Margaret married King Malcolm III of Scotland, and together they had eight children, including three future kings of Scotland.

Margaret died in 1093, shortly after receiving news of her husband and son's deaths in battle. She was canonized by Pope Innocent IV in 1250, and her feast day is celebrated on November 16.
