Faustinian of Bologna was a 4th-century Christian bishop who served as the second leader of the church in Bologna, succeeding Zama. During the persecutions under the reign of Diocletian, he was recognized as a confessor because he suffered for his faith but survived the period of oppression. He is primarily remembered for his steadfast opposition to the Arian heresy, maintaining orthodox positions during a time of significant theological conflict.
