Narcissus of Girona was a 4th-century bishop whose historical existence is debated, though he is commemorated as a saint in the Catholic, Anglican, and Orthodox traditions. According to legend, he fled the Roman persecutions in Spain to seek refuge in Augsburg, where his piety reportedly led to the conversion of Saint Afra and her companions. He is primarily remembered as a martyr who died in his homeland. His feast day is observed on October 29 in both Girona and Augsburg.
