Saint Beatus of Lungern, also known as Beatus of Beatenberg or Beatus of Thun, was an early Christian monk and hermit who is venerated as a saint. Though his legend states that he died in the 2nd century, it is likely that his story has been conflated with other saints of the same name, especially Beatus of Vendôme, and an Abbot Beatus who received a charter in 810 from Charlemagne to confirm that Honau Abbey would be administered by Irish monks.
