Life

Saint Rosina of Augsburg is venerated in Swabia as a holy martyr of the early centuries. Her commemoration is on 11 March (new style). Very little is known about her: she is said to have been a hermit before being martyred. Other details of her life belong rather to legendary hagiography. She is especially venerated in the diocese of Augsburg, at Wendlingen, where the church is dedicated to her and where a pilgrimage is attested from the fourteenth century. She is venerated in the Catholic Church.
