Life

Saint Eleutherius of Arce (Eleutherius of Rocca d'Arce) was, according to tradition, an English pilgrim, perhaps of the twelfth century, who died at Rocca d'Arce, at Arcano in Lazio, Italy, and was afterwards venerated as a saint. He is the chief patron of the place. Tradition makes him a brother of Grimwald and Fulk, also English pilgrims who relocated to Italy. He is commemorated on 29 May. Little is known of him.
