Life
Pimenius of Medina Sidonia was bishop of Asidonia (Medina Sidonia) in Visigothic Spain. He took part in the Fourth Council of Toledo in 633 and the Sixth in 638; at the Seventh, in 646, he was represented by the priest Ubiliensio. He consecrated several churches, placing in them relics of martyrs, as inscriptions preserved from 630, 644, 648 and 662 show. His episcopate lasted at least eighteen years, from 629 until after 646.
He is said to have been buried in a monastery at Aquis, near Talavera de la Reina. The sources consulted show no canonization.
