Saint Cyprian of Toulon (Cyprianus Tolonensis) (476 – October 3 546) was bishop of Toulon during the 6th century. Born at Marseilles he was the favorite pupil of St. Caesarius of Arles by whom he was trained. Caesarius ordained him in 506 to the diaconate and in 516 consecrated him as bishop of Toulon. St. Cyprian appears to have been present in 524 at the synod of Arles and in the following years to have attended a number of councils.
