Who they were

Saint Laudulphus was bishop of Évreux in Normandy at the end of the 6th century. A cleric attached to the cathedral of Évreux, he then lived as a hermit in a cave at Bérengeville-la-Rivière, and was chosen to succeed Bishop Viator of Évreux. He discovered the body of Saint Taurinus, first bishop of Évreux, and built there a basilica in honour of Saint Martin, apparently the first monastery of what became the abbey of Saint-Taurin d'Évreux, where he was buried; he is honoured on 13 August in the diocese of Évreux.
