Saint
Sylvius of Toulouse
Bishop of Toulouse
Bishop of Toulouse in Gaul, reposed around 400.
Life
Saint Sylvius of Toulouse (in French Sylve) was bishop of Toulouse from the year 360 to 400. Exuperius succeeded him in the see. Toward the end of the fourth century he began the building of the basilica of Saint-Sernin at Toulouse, which his successor completed. His relics were later moved to the church he had begun.
Some lists give him, in error, as bishop of Lyon. He is commemorated on 31 May as a saint of the West before the Great Schism (a saint of the undivided Church), by the New Calendar.
