Editing Lullus (section)

==Carolingian era==
From 769 onward, Lullus promoted the establishment of the [[Carolingian architecture|Carolingian style]] monastery of [[Hersfeld Abbey]], which he succeeded in having placed under [[Charlemagne]]'s [[Carolingian dynasty]] protection in 775.

Lullus's chief accomplishment was the completion of Saint Boniface's reform of the church in the Frankish [[Carolingian Empire]] and the successful conclusion of the [[Christianization]] of the Germans in [[Hesse]]-[[Thuringia]].<ref name=athelstan/> But while Boniface had looked for a close link to Rome, Lullus sought a better understanding with the Frankish kings.

Lullus died on 16 October 786 in Hersfeld Abbey at [[Bad Hersfeld]], and is buried in the church.<ref name=athelstan/>
