Biography

The Marist Martyrs of Barcelona were a group of 46 Catholic saints and blessed individuals who were members of the Marist Brothers of the Schools. They were martyred on a single day, most of them in a single murderous spree, during the Spanish Civil War. These holy men demonstrated unwavering faith and courage in the face of persecution, and their lives serve as a powerful testament to their commitment to Christ and the Catholic Church.
