Saint Praxedes (d. 165), called "a Roman maiden" a saint and virgin who lived in the Roman Empire during the 2nd century. Along with her sister, Saint Pudentiana, she provided for the poor and gave care and comfort to persecuted Christians and martyrs. Her veneration began in the 4th century and many churches have been dedicated to her.

Tradition calls her the daughter of the senator Pudens, “a friend of the apostles” and a disciple of the apostle Paul (the latter mentions him in 2 Tim. 4:21), and the sister of Saint Pudenziana.
