Vincent (bishop of Várad)

[2] Excluding a charter from 1244, he is only referred to as "provost" without adding the exact place, thus earlier historiography considered that he served in this capacity in the episcopal see Várad.

According to Thomas the Archdeacon, he was present alongside numerous barons and prelates, when the king entered Split (Spalato) then Trogir (Trau) in the spring of 1242.

[2] The Diocese of Várad suffered heavy losses during the Mongol invasion; the episcopal see was completely ransacked and burnt together with its cathedral and treasury, while most of the clergy were killed or fled.

During Vincent's 14-year episcopal activity, extensive restoration work was underway, he re-established parishes and churches, and he sought to populate his diocese with subjects and churchmen.
