Walfroy was a 6th-century Lombard deacon and holy man who lived in Francia. Born in Lombardy, he became a stylite, a type of ascetic who lived atop a pillar, within the diocese of Trier. His life is primarily documented by Gregory of Tours, who recorded how Walfroy established a monastery on a hill after being inspired by a relic of Saint Martin. He is recognized as a saint in the Catholic and Orthodox traditions for his extreme asceticism and religious devotion.
