Vicenç Romano was an Italian Catholic priest born in 1751 in Torre del Greco. Serving as a parish priest in Herculano, he became widely recognized for his frugal lifestyle and his dedicated service to orphans and the impoverished. He played a vital role in the recovery of the Naples region following the 1794 eruption of Mount Vesuvius, personally assisting in the removal of debris and the reconstruction of local structures. His tireless commitment to social needs earned him the nickname "The Worker Priest" among the local population.
