Saints Firmus and Rusticus (d. ca. 290 AD) are venerated as two martyrs of Verona. Their unreliable Acts state that Firmus and Rusticus, kinsmen, were prominent citizens of Bergamo. They were martyred at Verona under the Emperor Maximian after refusing to sacrifice to pagan idols. Under the judge Anolinus, they were tortured, beaten with clubs, and beheaded. It has been postulated that Firmus and Rusticus were actually two martyrs of Africa whose relics were translated to Verona.
