Hermit and disciple of St. Martin of Tours, France. A Bavarian, Florentius was ordained by St. Martin of Tours and sent to Poitou, France, as a missionary. He became a hermit on Mount Glonne in Anjou, and attracted so many disciples that he had to erect an abbey for them, now called St. Florent le Vieux.
