Ansbert of Rouen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Saint Ansbert (d.695) was a member of the court of Clotaire III, who at later age became a Benedictine monk. He rose to become abbot of Fontenelle and later bishop of Rouen (succeeding Saint Ouen), but Pippin of Herstal abandoned him to the monastery of Hautmont where he stayed until his death.

His feast day is 9 February.
