Remigius (Franciscus) Kleesatel [Klesatel, Klesatl]
(Böhmenkirch, 1717 - Oberried, 22 July 1783)

German priest, writer and composer. Almost nothing is known about his life. He was initially documented as priest at St. Blasien abbey, where he also took over the post of teacher and, from 1757, archivist. In 1768 he moved to Sion and later to Oberried. As a writer, he was mainly known by his poems. As a composer, he only left the collection XXIV Offertoria Solennia (1747) written in collaboration with the composer Martin Gerbert. The collection includes 24 offertories, the first dozen of them were written by Remigius Kleesatel.
