Icon of person Fermin

Fermin (also Firmin, from Latin Firminus; Spanish Fermín) was a holy man and martyr, traditionally venerated as the co-patron saint of Navarre, Spain. He was born in the mid 3rd century, so his death may be associated with the Diocletianic Persecution (303). Although he is said to have lived in the third century, the first texts we have about saint Fermin date back to the ninth century. Read more on Wikipedia
