Saint Congar (also Cumgar or Cungar; Welsh: Cyngar; Latin: Concarius) (c. 470–27 November 520) was a Welsh abbot and supposed bishop in Somerset now in England.He grew up in Pembrokeshire and travelled across the Bristol Channel to found a monastery on Cadbury Hill at Congresbury in Somerset. He gave his name to this village and to the parish church at Badgworth. This supposedly became the centre of a bishopric which preceded the Diocese of Bath and Wells.
