Life
The Venerable Lantfrid, Waltram and Elilantus were three brothers who founded the monastery of Benediktbeuern in Bavaria in Germany and succeeded one another as abbots. Lantfrid was the first abbot and reposed around 770. The sources preserve no further details of their lives.
They are commemorated on 10 July among the saints of the West before the Great Schism (saints of the undivided Church), by the New Calendar.
