  • Blessed Alpaïs (Alpaida, Alpaidis) of Cudot (died 1211) is venerated by the Catholic Church. Born into a peasant family of Cudot, in the diocese of Sens, she was stricken with leprosy at a young age. She denied herself food, and it is said that for a long time her only nourishment was the Eucharist. A story related of her states that once, she was brought pieces of pork to suck on by the prior of Cudot. Alpaïs decided to eat them all instead. Horrified by this, she sent the pork morsels to an old woman of the district to whom she usually sent table scraps and who was even poorer than she was. Her cultus was confirmed by Pius IX in 1874.
  • Alpais (auch Alpis, Aupaies), war eine Eremitin in der Diözese Sens und Orleans. Alpais soll auf wunderbare Weise von der Lepra geheilt worden sein und soll als Inklusin angeblich über lange Zeit nur von der heiligen Kommunion gelebt haben. Ihre Verehrung beeinflusste Autoren wie Caesarius von Heisterbach und Robert von Auxerre. 1180 stiftete Adele, die Gattin des französischen Königs Ludwigs VII. , ein Werk „pour l´amour d´Alpaise“. Alpais wurde am 26. Februar 1874 durch Pius IX. seliggesprochen (Fest 3. November). Ihr Grab befindet sich in Nôtre-Dame in Cudot.
