Eudes of Rennes (999 – 1079), (
Breton: Eozen Penteur)
count of Penthievre, was the youngest son of Duke
Geoffrey I of
Brittany. Following the death of his brother Duke
Alan III, Eudes ruled as regent of Brittany in the name of his nephew
Conan II, between 1040 and 1062. Eudes married Agnes of Cornwall, sister of
Hoel II of Brittany. At least two of Eudes' sons participated in the
Norman conquest of England.
His descendants became the junior branch of the Breton ducal family, which assumed control of the duchy in 1156 under Conan IV of Brittany.
