Life

A native of Bourges, he was educated as a courtier, he became an attendant at the Court of King Gontram at Chalon-sur-Saone.[3] However, Austregisilus wanted to become a monk and entered the abbey of Saint-Nizier at Lyon, where he became abbot. He was elected bishop of Bourges in 612.

He ordained Sulpitius the Pious. Saint Amand studied under him.[4]

The villages of Saint-Outrille and Saint-Aoustrille are named after him.
