Archbishop of Vienne, reposed around 970.
Life
Saint Theobald of Vienne (Thibaud, Teobaldo) was archbishop of Vienne in France and reposed around 1001. He is commemorated on 21 May. Our calendar gives 970 as the year of his repose, but that is the year he took the see: by the sources he governed from 970 until his death in 1001 (Wikipedia gives 957 as the year of his appointment).
He was born around 927 in eastern France. He was ordained a priest and then became archbishop. A supporter of monastic revival, he was deemed a protector of the Church against royal interference. He was the uncle of Theobald of Provins. His grave is in Saint-Maurice Cathedral in Vienne, is said to be the site of miracles and was once a pilgrimage site. His cult was approved by Pope Pius X on 9 December 1903.
