It lies on the banks of the river Allier, a tributary of the Loire.At Brioude, the ancient Brivas, its martyrs in the 4th century, Julien and Ferréol, became its patron saints; according to the Chronicle of Moissac, Euric of Toulouse had the basilica built, in the fourteenth year of his reign : it was wondrously decorated with columns. The emperor Avitus had already been buried at the shrine of Julian at Brivas , according to Gregory of Tours. Euric's basilica may have served to venerate both the saint and the Visigothic candidate for Roman Emperor.
