Ferréol de Vienne was a military tribune serving in the imperial army during the early 4th century. Living in Vienne, he is remembered for his decision to protect Saint Julian of Brioude. This act of support led to his arrest by the local governor, Crispin. After being beaten and imprisoned, he reportedly escaped his shackles through a miracle, though he was eventually recaptured and executed by decapitation.
