Salvio Huix Miralpeix was a Catalan Catholic bishop who served the diocese of Lleida during the 1930s. Born in 1877 in Sant Hilari Sacalm, he joined the Oratory of Saint Philip Neri and later served as the titular bishop of Selymbria and apostolic administrator of Ibiza. His tenure as the Bishop of Lleida was brief, as he was killed in 1936 during the Spanish Civil War. He is recognized by the Catholic Church as a martyr for refusing to renounce his faith.
