Magneric of Trier was a 6th-century Frankish bishop who served the city of Trier. Born around 522, he was notable for being among the earliest bishops to possess a Germanic name. He maintained close ties to the Merovingian royal family, even serving as godfather to King Theudebert II. Throughout his career, he worked to restore his city and established various clerical communities, including those dedicated to Saint Paulin and Saint Eucharius.
