Bruno or Brun (died 1029) was the son of Henry II, Duke of Bavaria (the Wrangler or Quarrelsome) and Gisela of Burgundy. He was the brother of St. Henry II of Germany, the only Holy Roman Emperor to be made a saint. Bruno was Bishop of Augsburg from 1006 or 1007 until 1029.

Bruno of Augsburg lived at a time when Christianity was still making inroads into various parts of Europe. As a bishop, he forwarded his kinsman St. Stephen's efforts to convert rebellious pagans to the new faith.

At one time Bishop Bruno was proposed to have been father of Agatha, wife of Edward the Exile and the grandfather of another saint: Saint Margaret of Scotland, but this solution to Agatha's parentage has passed out of favor.
