Licinius of Angers

Licinius of Angers (also known as Saint Lezin, or Lésin) (c.540–c.610) was a Frankish nobleman and bishop of Angers, celebrated as Catholic saint on 13 February.

[1] Lucinius was born about 540 and sent to the court of King Chlothar I when about 20.

Chlothar's son King Chilperic I made him governor of Angers.

[2] He founded a monastery and a Church both dedicated to St John the Baptist, and was buried there.

His age at death was said to be 64 and the date 618 by one source,[2] but others state earlier.
