Sigiramnus, also known as Saint Cyran, was a 7th-century nobleman from Berry who became an abbot and confessor. After studying in Tours, he served at the royal court of Clothaire II as a cup-bearer, though he practiced intense devotion by wearing a hair-shirt. Choosing religious life over a secular marriage arranged by his father, he eventually renounced his wealth to aid the poor. He is remembered for his humility, including a period where he performed manual labor alongside peasants.
