St. Vincent was born in Huesca but lived in Zaragoza, northern Spain. Imprisoned in Valencia for his faith, and tortured on a gridiron, Vincent converted his jailer to Christianity before being martyred under the Emperor Diocletian in c. 304. It is said that ravens protected his body as it was shipped to what is now Cape St. Vincent, the southwesternmost point of the Algarve in Portugal. He is today the patron saint of Lisbon, and of vintners and vinegar-makers. His feast day is 22 January in the Roman Catholic and Anglican churches, and 11 November in the Eastern Orthodox churches.
