Gwendoline.

Vallée des Saints.

Gwendoline (ou « Gwenn » - « Blanche » en breton) est surnommée « Teir Bronn » (« aux trois seins ») parce qu'elle a enfanté trois saints, les jumeaux Guethenoc et Jacut, puis saint Guénolé. Elle est l'épouse de saint Fragan.
Gwendoline et Fragan font partie de cette génération qui vivait à une époque charnière (au Vème siècle) puisque leurs deux premiers enfants naquirent au Pays de Galles et le troisième, Guénolé, peu après leur débarquement en Armorique.

Gwendoline (or «Gwenn» - «White» in Breton) is nicknamed «Teir Bronn» («with three breasts») because she gave birth to three saints, the twins Guethenoc and Jacut, then Saint Guénolé. She is the wife of St Fragan.
Gwendoline and Fragan are part of this generation which lived at a pivotal time (in the 5th century) since their first two children were born in Wales and the third, Guénolé, shortly after their landing in Armorica.
