A Benedictine monastery near Thuin in Belgian Flanders, founded between 636 and 654 by St. Landelin in honor of St. Peter. Lobbes (Laubias, Laubacum) enjoyed a period of prosperity until the 9th century, when it fell victim to the custom of appointing laymen as abbots, and its possessions and reputation began to decline. Ermin, born in Herly of a Frankish family, belongs to the clergy of Bishop Madalgar of Laon. Here he met the abbot-bishop Ursmar von Lobbes, where Ermin later became a monk and, after Ursmar's renunciation, abbot and bishop in 711/712. Ermin died on April 25, 737. He was buried in the Church of Our Lady in Lobbes. In 1409 his relics were transferred to St. Ursmer.
