Maximus of Évreux was a fourth-century bishop who served as the second leader of the see of Évreux. Following the work of Saint Taurinus, he traveled from his native Brescia to Gaul to preach the Christian faith. Accompanied by his brother, a deacon named Victorinus, he sought to convert various groups, but the brothers were eventually captured and executed at Acquigny. He is recognized as a saint in both the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox traditions.
