Life

Albinus of Embrun was bishop of Embrun, in the fifth century or around the year 630. He was consecrated by Proculus, bishop of Marseille, and during his episcopate suffered attacks from the Arians. His name first appears in the diocesan breviary of 1520. Today his veneration is almost forgotten. He is remembered on 1 March (Western calendar, new style).
