Life

Venerable Dubbin of Rinn Dubhain is commemorated on 11 February (old style, Julian calendar) in the Martyrology of Donegal, and also in the Martyrology of Tallaght and the Martyrology of Gorman. He is called a priest and pilgrim at Rinn Dubhain; his father is said to have been the king of Britain, Bracain, and his mother Din, daughter of the king of the Saxons. The veneration belongs to the undivided Church; nothing else of the life is recorded.
