Aurée was a 5th-century bishop and the first named leader of the see of Mainz. Originally from the Rhone-Loire region, he served the community during a period of significant migratory unrest. According to historical traditions and early church writings, he was killed alongside his sister, Justina, during a raid by the Huns. His leadership and subsequent martyrdom established him as a foundational figure in the Christian history of the Mainz region.
