Life

Saint Quartus, hieromartyr, is regarded as a bishop of Capua. He lived around the year 400. He is commemorated on 10 May, 7 July and 11 November.

Saint Quartus, with Quintus, Eurus and Pardus, suffered on the Via Latina in Rome, and they are venerated there. It is not fully certain that Quartus was bishop of Capua.

In the Middle Ages the relics of Saints Quartus and Quintus came to Ellwangen, where they were venerated as patrons of the monastery there.
