Life
Marian of Bardowick was a deacon and missionary on the lower Elbe and received the crown of martyrdom at Bardowick on 3 November 782. He is venerated as a saint in the Western Church.
Together with Egistius, he was, it seems, a disciple of Willehad of Bremen. He was killed by pagans during the Saxon uprising of 782, which was put down with bloodshed. Until the Reformation his relics were at Bardowick, where a church was dedicated to him, and at Verden. The name Marian is very widespread in Poland and the Czech lands. He is commemorated on 3 November.
