Saint Abundius of Córdoba
Saint Abundius of Córdoba was a ninth-century Spanish priest and Christian martyr who lived during the period of Muslim rule in Al-Andalus. Originally from the village of Ananelos near Córdoba, he was arrested after openly professing his Christian faith and refusing to renounce it.
He was executed in Córdoba in 854 AD and is remembered among the celebrated Martyrs of Córdoba, whose steadfast faith became a powerful testimony to Christian devotion.
His feast day is celebrated on 11 July.
