Saint Gwenhael (; ; Old Breton:
Gwenhael) was a
Breton saint of the 6th century, born at
Ergué-Gabéric (
Finistère), the second abbot of
Landévennec Abbey, successor in 532 to the founder,
Saint Winwaloe (Gwenole). According to tradition, Winwaloe met Gwenaël in a street in
Quimper when he was eleven, and was so convinced of his gifts that he at once obtained permission from Gwenaël's parents for him to study under his direction. The feast of Saint Gwenaël is 3 November. His
Vita was written in the 9th century.
