Bishop and missionary, a nephew of St. Gregory of Utrecht and a friend of the great scholar Alcuin. Little is known of his life before his entrance into the Benedictine Order at Utrecht, Netherlands. He served as prior of the cathedral of Utrecht, and was known for his piety and preaching. In 775 he was made bishop of Utrecht, succeeding St. Gregory, who had administered the area without being a prelate. Alberic spent the rest of his life preaching to the Teutons who populated the region. Alberic died on August 21, 784.
