Victorius or Victor (died 489) was an arvernian aristocratic, Count of Auvergne and then dux of aquitania prima from 480 to 489 under the visigothic king Euric.

[1][2] He was a personal friend of Sidonius Apollinaris, who would describe him as a pious and compassionate man.

[3] Victorius was under the service of he visigothic king Euric and in 480 was granted the title of Count of Auvergne and then dux of aquitania prima[1].

When Sidonius was imprisoned in 475 after the visigothic capture of Auvergne, Victorius dealt on his behalf with Euric, managing to get his sentence softened.
