Remaclus (also called Remaclus von Stablo; died 673) was a Benedictine missionary bishop who is venerated as a saint.
==Life== Remaclus grew up at the Aquitanian ducal court and studied under Sulpitius the Pious, bishop of Bourges. In 625 he became a Benedictine monk at Luxeuil Abbey and was later ordained a priest. Around 631 Eligius founded Solignac Abbey and sent for monks from Luxeil, among them Remaclus, who became the first abbot. The abbey followed the rule as at Luxeil. Audoin wrote that Solignac quickly gained importance. It became particularly known for its silversmith's workshop.
