Sigolena of Albi
Sigolena of Albi was a French deaconess and saint from Albi. Her feast day is July 24.
Sigolena was born into a noble family of Aquitaine.
She desired a chaste marriage and offered her husband all of her possessions to "gain the freedom of her body". When she was 24, he died unexpectedly and she had difficulties convincing her parents she did not want to marry again. Eventually, she was able to persuade her father to build her a convent.
Her church in Metz was situated near that of Saint Ferreolus of Besançon. Sigolena's biography was written by an anonymous author.
