St Faith Church

Unveiling the Best Places in St Faith Church

Saint Faith, also known as Saint Faith of Conques, was a young woman from Agen in Aquitaine who was arrested during the persecution of Christians by the Roman Empire and refused to make pagan sacrifices. She was tortured to death with a red-hot brazier, and her death is sometimes said to have occurred in the year 287 or 290, or in the large-scale Diocletianic Persecution beginning in 303. She is listed as "Sancta Fides, Virgin and martyr" in the martyrologies. The center of her veneration was transferred to the Abbey of Sainte-Foy, Conques, where her relics arrived in the ninth century. A number of legends exist regarding Faith, and she was confused with the three legendary sisters known as Faith, Hope, and Charity. The first extant reference to the martyrdom of Faith exists in the late sixth-century manuscript copy of the martyrology of Jerome, who died in 420, in which her feast day is listed as 6 October. Saint Faith's life and martyrdom has been recounted in several other verse narratives and martyrologies. A French verse narrative of Saint Faith, La Vie de Sainte Foy, was written by Simon of Walsingham, a monk at the Bury St Edmunds Abbey based on Latin sources. During the 12th century, Faith's cult (i.e., devotion and religious practices associated with her) was fused with that of Caprasius of Agen (Caprais) and Alberta of Agen, both associated with Agen. Caprasius' cult in turn was also fused with that of Primus and Felician, who are called Caprasius' brothers. In the fifth century, Dulcitius, bishop of Agen, ordered the construction of a basilica dedicated to her, later restored in the 8th century and enlarged in the 15th. It was demolished in 1892 due to an urban planning effort at Agen. The center of her cult was not the basilica but the abbatial church of Saint Foy at Conques. In 866, her remains had been transferred to Conques, which was along the pilgrimage route to Compostela. Her cult, centered at the Abbatiale Sainte-Foy de Conques, spread along the pilgrim routes on the Way of St. James—and beyond, for her cult became popular in England, Italy, and South America. In c. 1105, a priory dedicated to Saint Faith was erected in Horsham, a village in Norfolk, in which murals of Saint Faith have survived, discovered in 1969 hidden behind a refectory wall. The gilded reliquary at Conques was described in Bernard of Angers's Book of Miracles of Sainte Foi, about 1010. The head itself, made of a different gold from the body, has been tentatively identified as an imperial portrait of the Later Roman Empire. Thomas Hoving, former director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, has alternately theorized that the life-size golden face is a portrait or death mask of Charlemagne.
