Llŷr Forwen

Saint Llŷr Forwen was a Welsh saint of the 6th century. Her surname Morwen was misread as "virgin" (morwyn), but it points to a connection with the sea. She is sometimes confused with Llŷr Merini, husband of Saint Gwen of Talgarth.

She founded a Christian community at Llanllŷr in Ceredigion, which developed in the Middle Ages into a convent under the oversight of the monks of Strata Florida. One of the abbesses there was Gwladys, daughter of the Lord Rhys. No other details of her life survive.
