Life

Yuzel (in the Breton source Yezel) was abbot of the monastery of Landévennec in Brittany. He was martyred at Daoulas, killed among his disciples by the lord of Le Faou.

The source used gives no other fact, neither year nor feast day. He is honoured in the Breton tradition; no synodal canonization is shown.
