Proculus of Verona was a 4th-century bishop who served the Christian community in Verona. He is primarily recognized for surviving the persecutions led by Diocletian. According to tradition, he attempted to support fellow Christians in prison, which resulted in him being beaten and exiled by the consul Anulinus. Despite these hardships, he lived to see the end of the persecutions and eventually returned to his city, where he died of natural causes around 320 AD.
