Sidonius, Bishop of Passau
Sidonius was the third Bishop of Passau from about 754 to 763/764.[1][2]
Sidonius appears in a donation deed of the Passau domicile. He was a monk from Ireland who distinguished himself as a scientifically high-ranking theologian and probably belonged to the circle around the later Salzburg bishop Virgil von Salzburg.[3]
