Life
Reginbert of Seldenbüren (today Sellenbüren, also called Reinbert) is the legendary founder of the Benedictine monastery of Sankt Blasien in the Black Forest. He died on 29 December 964, at Sankt Blasien.
Our sources give no more details of his life; apart from his being considered in legend the founder of the monastery, we have no sure historical data. He is counted among the saints of the 10th century.
He is a local saint of the West; no Orthodox synodal canonization is known. The information about him is uncertain, and the person is largely legendary.
