EspañolSAINT REGINA (MARTYR)
(Redirected from Regina (saint))
'Saint Regina' (3rd century) was a virgin martyr and saint of the Catholic Church. Born in Autun, France, to a pagan named Clement, she was betrothed to the proconsul Olymbrius, but refused to renounce her faith to marry him, for which she was tortured and beheaded.
Regina's feast is celebrated on 7 September. In the past, a procession was held in her honor in the town of Dijon. However, her relics were transferred to Flavigny Abbey in 827. She is usually depicted as experiencing the torments of martyrdom, or as receiving spiritual consolation in prison by a vision of a dove on a luminous cross.
