Medericus

Medericus was born at Autun in France and became a monk at the monastery of Saint Martin at Autun, where he eventually became abbot. Later he lived as a hermit near Paris, where the church of Saint-⁠Merry now stands. He reposed on 29 August 700 and is regarded as patron of the right bank of the Seine in Paris. He is a saint of the undivided Church, venerated in the West.

His commemoration falls on 29 August (new calendar); the Churches on the Old Calendar keep the same day of the Menaion on 11 September of the civil calendar.
