Saint Érembert (610-670), son of a Merovingian nobleman, was
Saint Saturnin
, the first Bishop of Toulouse.
He became a monk at the Abbey of Fontenelle where he received the habit of St. Benedict from Saint Wandrille. He was a disciple of Saint Lambertus, then abbot and later Bishop of Lyon. In 656, Chlothar III appointed him bishop of Toulouse, a position he held for ten years before returning to his original monastery.
According to his hagiography, Érembert’s miracle was the extinguishing of a raging fire, trapping a crowd in the basilica, by just his staff.[1]
