Leonorius

Saint Leonorius (also called Leonorus, Léonor or Lunaire) was a Welsh monk and bishop who laboured in Brittany. According to the sources he was born in Wales, the son of King Hoel I and Saint Koupaïa (Pompeia of Langoat); an English martyrology says he was born in England and educated by Saint Illtyd. Saint Dubricius of Caerleon consecrated him bishop. He crossed to Brittany, where his brother Hoel ruled, and founded a monastery at Pontual, south of Loctudy. He is said to have hung his coat on a sunbeam. The French regard him as born in 509, brother of Saint Tugdual of Tréguier, and venerated from the western tip of Armorica to the border of Brittany. He reposed around 560 or 570.

The seaside village of Saint-⁠Lunaire, near Dinard, bears his name. He is commemorated on 1 July, as a saint of the West before the Great Schism (a saint of the undivided Church), by the New Calendar.
