Saint Eleutherius of Tournai (French: Eleuthère) (died c. 532) is venerated as a saint and considered the first bishop of Tournai. The Catholic Encyclopedia writes that "historically there is very little known about St. Eleutherius, but he was without doubt the first Bishop of Tournai." Tradition makes him a lifelong friend of St. Medardus, and the two saints had been courtiers before becoming bishops. Eleutherius was probably named bishop of Tournai after St. Remigius organized the church hierarchy of northern Gaul at the end of the fifth century.

  • Eleuteri de Tournai (Tournai?, ca. 453 - ca. 532) fou el primer bisbe de Tournai. És venerat com sant per diverses confessions cristianes. Se sap molt poc de la seva vida, ja que no n'hi ha fonts antigues. La tradició diu que era amic de Sant i, com ell, havia viscut a la cort merovíngia. Fou nomenat bisbe de Tournai quan Remigi de Reims organitzà la divisió en diòcesis de la Gàl·lia del nord. Se li atribuïren alguns sermons per a les festes de la Trinitat, la Nativitat i l'Anunciació (Bibliotheca Patrum, vol. XV) però no són obra seva en realitat. (ca)
  • San Eleuterio de Tournai (del francés: Eleuthère) (f. 532) fue un santo venerado y considerado el primer obispo de Tournai.​ La Enciclopedia Católica escribe que «históricamente hay muy poco conocimiento sobre san Eleuterio, pero que fue sin duda el primer obispo de Tournai».​ La tradición dice que era amigo de San Medardo, y los dos santos fueron cortesanos antes de obispos.​ Eleuterio fue nombrado probablemente obispo de Tournai después de San Remigio organizando la jerarquía ecelesiástica del norte de al final del siglo V.​​​ (es)
  • Eleuterio di Tournai (Tournai, 456 – Tournai, 20 febbraio 531), venerato come santo dalla chiesa cattolica, fu vescovo di Tournai per 45 anni (486-531). Lottò per salvaguardare il cristianesimo contro gli invasori barbari e contro il diffondersi dell'Arianesimo. (it)
  • Eleutherius van Doornik (Doornik, rond 455/6 - aldaar, 531/2) was eerste bisschop van het in 486 gestichte bisdom Doornik. Hij geldt als missiebisschop voor Vlaanderen. Hij zou gestorven zijn aan verwondingen die hij opliep in een strijd met arianen. Eleutherius wordt als heilige vereerd en aanroepen tegen koorts, droogte en regen. Zijn gedachtenis in de Rooms-Katholieke Kerk vindt plaats op 20 februari, de translatie van zijn relieken op 25 augustus. (nl)

  • Saint Éleuthère, né à Tournai de parents chrétiens aux environs de 456 fut sacré évêque de Tournai à l'âge de trente ans par saint Remi de Reims en 486. Comme le suggère l’oraison de sa fête, il devait être à la fois chef religieux et défenseur de la cité. Il dut d'abord affronter une très forte hostilité de la part d'une population redevenue paienne dans le désordre des invasions barbares.Par sa prédication, alliée à sa patience et sa prière Éleuthère arriva à regagner à la vraie foi chrétienne un grand nombre d'ariens. Le lendemain du baptême de Clovis, il baptisa à Tournai un grand nombre de païens. (fr)
