Holy Martyr Felix of Barcelona was a Christian who, around 304, when the Holy Martyr Eulalia of Barcelona was taken down from the tree, cried out with tears of joy, "O Eulalia, you were the first of us to receive the crown of martyrdom." Soon Felix himself was put to death for Christ.

He is commemorated on the same day as Saint Eulalia, 4 September (new style). His name is not included in the present Menologion of the Russian Church.
