Wandelbert

Wandelbert (813 - d. after 850) was a Benedictine monk and theological writer. Little is known of his personal history. He was apparently a native of France, and in 839 he was already a monk at the Abbey of Prüm. He died at Prüm. About this date Abbot Markward commissioned him to rewrite the old life of St. Goar and to supplement it by an account of the miracles worked by the saint. The life Wandelbert wrote is not without historical value.
