Germanus

Holy Martyr Germanus of Girona suffered at the beginning of the fourth century, in the persecution of Diocletian. According to tradition he was one of four martyrs of Girona, with Scicius, Paulinus and Justus, called "the stoned" (in Latin Lapicidae). Only forged acts of their martyrdom survive, so even this name is not certain. He is identified with the martyr Gesmanus of Castelló d'Empúries.

Their relics lay in a church of the Mother of God outside the city. At the command of Charlemagne they were moved to the cathedral of Girona, and around 1200 to a chapel of the holy martyrs built for them inside the cathedral. He is commemorated on 8 June (new style) in the Catholic Church, as a saint of the undivided Church.
