Biography
Saint Rumold, also known as Saint Rumbold, was an influential figure in the early Christian missionary movement in the region of modern Netherlands and Brabant, Belgium. Although his exact origins are a subject of debate, some writers indicate that he might have been the son of a Scottish king, while others suggest that his brother was Saint Himelin. There are even claims that he held the bishopric of Dublin in Ireland, although the historical evidence for this is inconclusive.
