'''Saint Domninus of Fidenza''' (Italian: ''San Donnino''; d. 304 AD) was an early Christian martyr from Parma, Italy, executed during the Diocletianic Persecution for refusing to renounce his faith.<ref>{{Cite web |title=St. Domninus of Fidenza |url=https://www.catholic.org/saints/saint.php?saint_id=2960 |website=Catholic Online |access-date=2025-11-14}}</ref> According to hagiographic tradition preserved in the 10th-century ''Passio Sancti Domnini'', Domninus, a nobleman and chamberlain to Emperor Maximian, fled Parma to escape persecution, finding refuge in Amelia (Umbria), where he was betrayed by a servant and beheaded on the Via Claudia (modern Via Amerina).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Domninus of Fidenza |url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domninus_of_Fidenza |website=Wikipedia |access-date=2025-11-14}}</ref> His relics were translated to Fidenza (ancient Fidentia) in 1207, where a small church was built over his supposed grave, elevating the town—formerly Borgo San Donnino—to prominence as a pilgrimage site.
