Victoria of Córdoba was a third-century Christian martyr who lived in Roman Hispania. Alongside her brother Acisclus, she was executed during the Diocletianic Persecution for refusing to worship Roman deities. According to historical accounts, the siblings were arrested after declaring that idols were merely stones. Their deaths in Córdoba established them as the first saints of the region, and they remain significant figures in the religious history of southern Spain.
