Pope Alexander I was the Bishop of Rome from c. 107 to his death c. 115. The Holy See's Annuario Pontificio identifies him as a Roman who reigned from 108 or 109 to 116 or 119; some believe he suffered martyrdom under the Roman Emperor Trajan or Hadrian, but this is improbable. According to the Liber Pontificalis, it was Alexander I who inserted the narration of the Last Supper into the liturgy of the Mass. However, the article on Saint Alexander I in the 1907 Catholic Encyclopedia, written by Thomas Shahan, judges this tradition to be inaccurate, a view shared by both Catholic and non-Catholic experts, it is viewed as a product of the agenda of Liber Pontificalis—this section of the book was written in the late 5th century—to show an ancient pattern of the earliest bishops of Rome ruling the church by papal decree. The introduction of the customs of using blessed water mixed with salt for the purification of Christian homes from evil influences, as well as that of mixing water with the sacramental wine, are attributed to Pope Alexander I.
Some sources consider these attributions unlikely. It is possible, that Alexander played an important part in the early development of the Church of Rome's emerging liturgical and administrative traditions. A tradition holds that in the reign of Hadrian, Alexander I converted the Roman governor Hermes by miraculous means, together with his entire household of 1,500 people. Quirinus of Neuss, Alexander's supposed jailer, Quirinus' daughter Balbina of Rome were among his converts. Alexander is said to have seen a vision of the infant Jesus, his remains are said to have been transferred to Freising in Bavaria, Germany in AD 834. Some editions of the Roman Missal identified with Pope Alexander I with the Alexander that they give as commemorated, together with Eventius and Theodulus, on 3 May. See, for instance, the General Roman Calendar of 1954, but nothing is known of these three saints other than their names, together with the fact that they were martyred and were buried at the seventh milestone of the Via Nomentana on 3 May of some year.
For this reason, the Pope John XXIII's 1960 revision of the calendar returned to the presentation, in the 1570 Tridentine Calendar of the three saints as "Saints Alexander and Theodulus Martyrs" with no suggestion that any of them was a pope. The Roman Martyrology lists them as Eventius and Theodulus, the order in which their names are given in historical documents.

Wilhelm Furtwängler and Paul Hindemith, Karl Böhm and Hans Svarowsky, along with the young Lorin Maazel were jointly responsible for the choir's development at that time.
In 1983, Agnes Grossmann assumed the post of artistic director, as the first woman to head the Wiener Singakademie.

Named after his grandfather Hercule, Lord of Monaco, Grimaldi was styled as the Marquis of Baux, after 1642, the title being one of the subsidiary titles, given to his father by Louis XIII of France. In fact, Baux was created Marquis by Louis XIII himself. Baux was a skilled military-man and led the attack on the Serravalle Tower, taking the sentries prisoner. Baux and his wife and their children went to visit the convent of Carnoles in Mentone. After the visit was over Baux relaxed in the gardens by shooting targets with some guards.

Nonetheless, the man was imprisoned for a time and tried to kill himself. After his release he never returned to Monaco. Afterwards, there were reports that a local monk had predicted Baux's death and that Baux himself had seen a ghost who had told him to enjoy life for he would not be able to in a short time.

The Möhlintal is a 10-kilometre long valley running between Möhlin and Wegenstetten in the Rheinfelden district of Canton Aargau, Switzerland. The five municipalities in the valley have a total population of around 14,000 people; the upper part of the valley is known as the "Wegenstettertal". This name was used by associations and groups related to the upper Möhlintal municipalities. In Habsburg times the area was known as Landschaft Möhlinbach; the valley was sometimes known as the "Chläfflital". The official name of the valley given by Canton Aargau is "Möhlintal"; the valley lies in the North Eastern Tabel Jura, part of the Swiss Jura Mountains which are distinct from the Faltenjura because the strata are not folded. The Möhlintal runs in a straight line from Southeast to Northwest, surrounded by high table plateaux through which the valley cuts; the Möhlinbach flows from its source at the top of the valley between the municipalities of Wegenstetten and Hemmiken, through the valley to join the Rein near Möhlin.
Like most other Jura valleys in the Fricktal region, the Möhlintal has a narrow valley floor. Because of its climatic circumstances, the valley experiences up to 40 days more sunshine than the Swiss Plateau and is fog-free. On 5 August 2003 the private weather service Meteomedia recorded a temperature of 40.3 °C in Möhlin, a record for Switzerland. Thanks to the mild climate and the wind shielded location, the Möhlintal is suitable for vineyards. On the south side of the Zeinigerberges near Zeiningen the Spätburgunder and Müller-Thurgau vineyards are located. On the valley floor and flat hill summits intensive farming is performed. Important for the Möhlintal is the production of Kirsch from cherries; the "Chriesiberg" near Zuzgen derives its name from the cherry trees. "Fricktaler Kirsch" is a known product. On the Northeastern side of the valley lies the Looberg-Wabrig-Hersberg high plateau, bordered on the other side by the parallel running Fischingertal. On this high plateau the Fricktal-Schupfart Aerodrome is located where each year the Schupfart Festival is held.
The small winter sports area of Föhrlimatt in Wegenstetten lies on the west flank of the Tiersteinberg has one ski lift and attracts high numbers of visitors from the region through the winter season. Statistical data Area: 5,272 Hektars, of which: 51 % Farmed 37 % Forest 11 % Housing Population: 14,194 Population Density: 269 people/km² The Landschaft Möhlinbach was, like the rest of Fricktal a beneficiary of affiliation with Vorderösterreich through a lower administrative unit, the Kameralherrschaft Rheinfelden which in turn was affiliated to the Oberamt Breisgau; the Landschaft Möhlinbach encompassed the villages of Hellikon, Magden, Möhlin, Olsberg, Wegenstetten and Zuzgen. The villagers of the Landschaft Möhlinbach were the trigger for the Rappenkkrieg; the Möhlintal shows a religious anomaly: Mohlin has the highest Swiss-wide population of Christ Catholics and Hellikon has the highest proportion of Christ Catholics. Christ Catholic churches and/or chapels are found in Möhlin and Zuzgen.
The Möhlintal can be travelled in half an hour using the PostAuto Nordschweiz line 89. In Wegenstetten the bus line 101 terminates, connecting the Möhlintal with the neighbouring Canton Basel Land. An infrequent bus route connects Wegenstetten with the Fischingertal. Möhlin railway station stands on the Basel-Zürich line; the station is served by the S1 route of the Regio S-Bahn Basel that runs from Mulhouse in France, through Basel and terminates in either Frick or Laufenburg. The A3 motorway crosses the Möhlintal on a viaduct at Zeiningen; the nearest interchanges are located at Eiken. Along the high plateau between Möhlintal and Fischingertal runs part of the Fricktaler Höhenweg, a regional walking route
