Dredenau

Dredenau is the local name of two princely brothers venerated in a flamboyant chapel in the parish of Saint-⁠Géran on the Blavet in Morbihan. According to tradition, they were slain by an ambitious uncle who threw their bodies into a marsh, where a white sow guarded them until devout people buried them. No record says who they were. It has been conjectured, without certainty, that they were the sons of Modred, murdered about 538 by Constantine of Cornwall, of whom Gildas writes. Their statues stand in the chapel, with others at the holy well in the marsh; the pardon is held on the fourth Sunday after Easter. They are venerated in the undivided Church.
