Wasnon de Condé was a seventh-century monk, possibly of Irish or Scottish origin, who traveled to northern Gaul to spread Christianity. He arrived in the Condatum region around 633, a territory then characterized by dense woodlands. During a period when many inhabitants had returned to paganism due to the instability caused by barbarian invasions, he worked to restore the faith. He is remembered for establishing a small oratory on a wooded hill, where he eventually died in 677.
