Wicbert or Guibert (892 – 23 May 962) was a nobleman who became a hermit and founded Gembloux Abbey. He was canonized as a saint in 1211. Saint Guibert's feast day is observed on 23 May.
An aristocrat from Lotharingia who had participated in several military campaigns, Guibert withdrew as a hermit on family property in Gembloux (formerly Gemblours) inherited from his father. In 936 he founded a fortified and almost independent monastery (having its own currency). The monastery was dedicated to St. Peter the Apostle and the holy martyr Exuperius.
