Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox saint Florinus of Remüs (died 856 AD), also known as Florin, Florian of Chur, Florinus of Matsch, and Florinus of Vinschgau, is venerated as a saint in the Catholic Church, particularly in the dioceses of Chur, Bolzano-Brixen, Vaduz, and in the Rhineland.

History

Little is known of his life, as there is no early vita. Florinus may have been the son of an Anglo-Saxon man and Jewish woman, who converted to Christianity and had settled at Matsch (Mazia) in the Vinschgau Valley on their way back from a pilgrimage to Rome.[1]

Florinus received his education from a priest at Unterengadin, where he was also ordained.[1] He then worked as a priest at Remüs (Ramosch).[1]

Miracles are attributed to him, including the turning of water into wine.[1] After his death, numerous miracles were said to have taken place at his tomb in the parish church of Remüs.[1]

Veneration

He is called a confessor of the Faith rather than a martyr. After his death, the popularity of his cult increased, and his relics were distributed to various places, including the Florinskirche at Koblenz (in 950 AD) and also Regensburg.[2] Vaduz Cathedral and the parish church at Matsch (Mazia) are also dedicated to him.[2] He is depicted in a stained-glass window at Chur Cathedral.[2]

Florinus is the patron saint of Chur.[3]
