Life
Felix and Regula were brother and sister, martyrs of the third century. When Saint Maurice and his legion were martyred under Maximian Herculeus, they took refuge in Switzerland, but were found and beheaded near Zürich, together with their servant Exuperantius. They are the patron saints of Zürich. They are saints of the undivided Church, venerated in the West.
Their commemoration falls on 11 September (new calendar); the Churches on the Old Calendar keep the same day of the Menaion on 24 September of the civil calendar.
