Dalmatius of Rodez

Saint Dalmatius of Rodez (French: Saint Dalmas, Dalmace) was a bishop of Rodez from 524 to 580. He is considered by the Catholic Church to have suffered at the hands of Amalaric, who was a follower of Arianism. In 535, Dalmatius attended the Council of Arvernum, which among its sixteen decrees, held that the granting of episcopal dignity must be according to the merits and not as a result of intrigues. In 541, he attended the Fourth Council of Orléans and on his return made a pilgrimage to the tomb of Martin of Tours.
