Life
Venerable Winwaloe of Landévennec (born about 460) was the founder and first abbot of Landévennec Abbey, south of Brest in Brittany. He was born in Brittany and was a disciple of Saint Budoc on the island of Lavret. Several churches in Cornwall are dedicated to him, which points to some link between the saint and that land. He reposed on 3 March 532. He is venerated as a saint of the undivided Church and is commemorated on 3 March (new calendar).
