Saint-Cyran-du-Jambot () is a commune in the Indre department in central France.
Saint-Cyran's origins lie with a monastic foundation founded by Saint Sigiramnus (Cyran) in the 7th century.Alban Butler, Kathleen Jones, David Hugh Farmer, Paul Burns, Butler's lives of the saints (Published by Liturgical Press, 2000), 41-2. The foundation was first known as Saint-Pierre de Longoret (Longoretum, Lonrey) but was later named after its founder. In the 17th century, Jean du Vergier de Hauranne, known as the Abbé de Saint-Cyran, served as abbot of this monastery. He was succeeded by his nephew Martin de Barcos. The monastery was dissolved in 1712.
