Stephen of Lunéville

Holy Hierarch Stephen of Lunéville was the thirty-⁠fourth bishop of Toul in Lorraine, between 24 June 994 and 4 (or 12) March 995. He was related to the line of Folmar or Volmar, first lord of the Val de Villé, and to the counts of Lunéville. He was the immediate successor of Saints Gerard and Gauzelin. He was of the clergy of Metz when the chapter of Toul chose him to ascend the episcopal seat.

Archbishop Liudolf of Trier consecrated him bishop outside Toul, in the abbey of Mettlach, because he had laid the city under interdict for having rebelled against his authority. Arrived at Toul, Stephen took several measures to restore public order. He died suddenly at the abbey of Bonmoûtier, during a pastoral visit, on 4 March 995. He was buried first in the tomb of Saints John and Benignus at Moyenmoutier. In the 13th century his body was raised from the tomb and a small lead cross was found on his chest with the words: "ÉTIENNE DE BONNE MÉMOIRE, ÉVÊQUE DE TOUL" (Stephen of good memory, bishop of Toul). According to the manuscript of Saint Mansuy he was reburied in the abbey of Moyenmoutier. He was then venerated as a saint. He is venerated by the faithful, with a local cult.
