Saint Sunniva of Bergen, also known as Sunniva of Norway, was the daughter of a tenth-century Irish king. Sunniva's life took a dramatic turn when a pagan king sought to marry her by force, prompting her to flee with her brother Alban (sometimes linked to the British St. Alban), other companions (including, in later accounts, sisters), and followers.
They set sail in small ships without oars or sails, trusting in God, and landed on the uninhabited islands of Selja (Selje) and Kinn off Norway’s western coast during the time of the pagan Jarl Hákon Sigurðarson (ca. 962–995 AD). They lived ascetically in caves, surviving on fish.
Locals accused them of stealing sheep, so Hákon sent men to investigate or attack them. The refugees hid in a cave on Selja. The cave collapsed, burying them, resulting in their martyrdom
A Shrine to Saint Sunniva is here in Norway.
