Sigefroi
Bishop of Séez
Venerated inRoman Catholic Church


Sigefroi or Sifroi (Sigefridus)[1] was a Norman prelate of the early 11th century in what is today France.

Sigefroi was probably installed in the bishopric of Sees by the lords of Belleme around 1017.[2] They restores some of the property of the bishopric they had monopolized in order to restore the chapter cathedral.[3]

Sigefroi signed a charter of Guillaume de Dijon, abbot of Fécamp in 1017.[4] In another document Sigefroi confirms in 1020 the donation of Richard, duke of Normandy, to the church of Sées of half of the city and the land of Boéville.[1]
