St Arbogast [1]

was bishop of Strasburg from A.D. 669 to 678, the year of his death. He gained the favor of the king;Dagobert, who gave to him, among others, the fortress of Issemburg and the city of Ruffach, with all the surrounding domains. Arbogast ordered that at his death his body should be interred in the place reserved for criminals. His remains were removed some time after to the collegiate church which he had founded at Strasburg. See Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, s.v.
