Saint
Eoaldus of Vienne
Bishop of Vienne
Bishop of Vienne in France, who reposed in 716.
Life
Eoaldus of Vienne (Éoalde) was bishop of Vienne in France at the end of the 7th century and the beginning of the 8th, and reposed around 716. He is counted as a saint from the time before the formal organization of canonizations in the Roman Catholic Church, and is commemorated on 7 July.
His name appears in the will of the abbot Ephibius of 696, which left lands to the church at Vienne, and in a confirmation by King Childebert III in 697. He was related to the Frankish royal family. He began the building of a new cathedral at Vienne, replaced in the 11th century, and dedicated it to Saint Maurice and the Theban Legion. No other deeds survive in the sources at hand.
