Biography
During the Mongol invasion of Russia in the winter 1237 / 1238's in the battle of Kolomna he was wounded and captured. Batu forced Oleg to change his faith. But Oleg refused, but was "spared for the sake of his rare beauty." The Ryazan reign was only released in 1252.

After fourteen years of captivity returned to his homeland and reigned six more years. In 1258, feeling the approach of death, blessed Oleg was tonsured in the schema with the name of Kosma. He transferred the throne to his son Roman and peacefully died on March 8, 1258.

He was buried in the Church of the Holy Savior.

On 10 (23) June, the reverend prince of Rome , the venerable prince Oleg Pronsky (in the schema of Kosma), is revered in Ryazan land as well as a local saint.
