'''Saint Giles''' (c. 650 – c. 710) was a [[Saints|Christian saint]] and hermit, revered for his ascetic life and miracles in early medieval Europe. Born in [[Athens]], [[Greece]], he lived as a hermit in [[Provence]], [[France]], and later founded a monastery under the [[Diocese of Nîmes]]. His intercession for the disabled and poor made him widely venerated. Canonized by pre-congregation recognition, his feast day on September 1 in the [[Roman Rite]] draws pilgrims to his relics in [[Provence, France]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://catholicsaints.info/saint-giles/|title=Saint Giles|publisher=CatholicSaints.Info|access-date=May 26, 2025}}</ref>
