Life

Saint Bonosa was, according to tradition, a martyr of Porto Romano near Rome, around 211, venerated in a basilica together with Eutropius and Zosimus. Part of her relics were taken in 1227 to the abbey of Clairvaux, and in 1256 they were moved to Trastevere in Rome. Today they are kept in a church in Rome. She is commemorated on 15 July. She is not to be confused with another Bonosa, whose relics lie at the Lateran.
