Lothaire II King of Lotharingia granted him the abbey of Saint Peter de Gorze in the diocese of Metz [28 Sep/855/8 Jul 856]: this grant is referred to in the charter dated 863, which records the reform of Gorze abbey carried out by “Adventius” bishop of Metz, including the statement that King Lothaire granted the monastery to “Bivino…comiti”.
