Saints celebrated on the 15th of June
SAINT ALBRICUS, BISHOP OF AUTUN
Saint Albricus (Aldricus) was bishop of Autun in Burgundy and died at Montbrisson (Mons-Brysonis) in the diocese of Lyons, whither he had travelled on business and where he is buried. Many miracles happened at his grave.
Some writers state that he had been a bishop of Lyons; but the above assumption is based on proven evidence and is therefore more likely. A translation of his relics is celebrated on July 3.
