Idalguer

Idalguer (Latin: Hidelherius, Idelherus; died 914) was the second bishop of Vic (899–914) after the see was re-founded.

[1] He played a leading role in re-organising the diocese, consecrating churches at Lluçà, Manlleu and Sant Julià de Vilatorta.

[2] At the council of Barcelona in 906 Idalguer averred that "there was not a single Christian left alive in Osona" after the rebellion of Aizo in 826–27 until the re-settlement initiated in 878 by Count Wifred I, the Hairy.

[3] He attributes the reconquista and repoblación to divine mercy: "the Lord had mercy on those lands, he raised up in them the most noble prince Wifred".

His account before the council of the poverty of his diocese led to a remittance of the annual tribute owed to the archdiocese of Narbonne.
