Life
Holy Hierarch Falco of Maastricht was Bishop of Maastricht from the year 495 until his repose in 512. According to Wikipedia he is the first bishop of the city after Saint Servatius to be securely documented: Saint Remigius mentions him in an undated letter, complaining that Falco had taken certain rights at Mouzon. He is venerated as a saint of the undivided Church and is commemorated on 20 February (new calendar).
