The article focuses on the cult of women saints in the spiritual life of the Blessed Dorothy of Montau. The material under discussion is the earliest biographical sources of the Blessed, especially "Liber de festis" and "Vita" by Dorothy’s confessor, John of Marienwerder. Dorothy venerated holy virgin martyrs, (e.g. her patron saint, St. Dorothy), saints worshipped by the Teutonic Order (St. Elizabeth of Hungary) and other holy women, e.g. belonging to the laity like the Montau recluse herself (St. Brigdet of Sweden, St. Mary Magdalene). The forms of the cult mentioned in the sources analysed vary from prayers and meditations to the imitationof the saints and some aspects of their lives.
