Glossinde de Metz was a 6th-century noblewoman from the Carolingian lineage who became a nun and abbess. Born into an influential Austrasian family, she sought a religious life following the execution of her young husband, a nobleman who was arrested for conspiracy against the king. After seeking refuge at the Church of Saint Stephen in Metz, her parents eventually supported her vocation by establishing a convent for her. She served as the leader of this community for six years until her death at the age of 30.
