Saint Leudwinus, Count of Treves (Ecclesiastical Latin:[ˈlɛu̯d.vi.nus]; also Leodewin, Liutwin, Ludwin, etc.; c. 660 – 29 September 722 AD in Reims) founded an abbey in Mettlach. He was Archbishop of Treves and Laon.[1][2] As patron saint of the Mettlach parish, his relics are carried through the town by procession at the annual Pentecost celebration.[3] His feast day is September 23. He was the son of Saint Warinus, the paternal grandson of Saint Sigrada, and nephew of Saint Leodegarius.
