==Life== The daughter of Pepin of Landen and his wife, Itta, Begga was the older sister of St Gertrude of Nivelles. She married Ansegisel, son of Arnulf, Bishop of Metz, and was the mother of Pepin of Heristal and possibly Duke Martin. Ansegisel was killed sometime before 679, slain in a feud by his enemy Gundewin. thumb|left|Saint Begga holds a scale model of a monastery with seven turrets, referring to the monastery with seven chapels that she founded in Andenne. Begga made a pilgrimage to Rome and upon her return, she took the veil, she had seven churches built at Andenne on the Meuse. There she spent the rest of her days as abbess. She was buried in Saint Begga's Collegiate Church in Andenne.
