Comment

Pol Aurélien, or Pol de Léon, in Latin Paulinus Aurelianus, in Breton Paol Aorelian, was a Breton saint and the first bishop of Saint-Pol-de-Léon and the Léon region in the 6th century. His feast day is March 12.

He is one of the seven founding saints of mainland Brittany. Saint-Pol-de-Léon is a stopover on the medieval pilgrimage of the seven saints of mainland Brittany, now known as the "Tro Breizh" (Tour of Brittany).
