Saints Servandus and Germanus (Spanish: San Servando y San Germán) (d. 305 AD) were Spanish martyrs who are venerated as Christian saints. They were killed near Cádiz. Tradition states that they were from Mérida, and sons of Saint Marcellus the Centurion. They joined the Roman Army and were imprisoned after being identified as Christians. They made new converts in prison. During the persecution of Diocletian, the vicarius of Mérida, Viator, tortured them and imprisoned them once again. Viator then planned to take them to Mauritania Tingitana and had them walk barefoot and in chains from Mérida to Cádiz. Viator failed to find a boat that could take them and they were decapitated on a hill of the fundus Ursianus in the conventus Gaditanus. The body of Germanus was buried at Mérida and Servan

  • Servand i Germà (Mèrida, Extremadura, últim quart del segle III - San Fernando, Andalusia, c. 305) foren dos germans cristians, morts màrtirs durant les persecucions romanes. Són venerats com a sants per l'Església catòlica. (ca)
  • Servandus und Germanus sind zwei in Spanien verehrte Heiligengefährten aus der Zeit Kaiser Hadrians oder der Diokletianischen Christenverfolgung. Ihr Gedenktag ist der 23. Oktober. (de)
  • Los nombres de los hermanos Servando y Germán significan, etimológicamente, 'el que guarda' y 'lancero, guerrero'. Eran oriundos de Augusta Emerita (actual Mérida, España), y fueron martirizados alrededor del año 305 camino de la Tingitana en un cortijo de la actual San Fernando (conventus Gaditanus) llamado Ursiano. Una leyenda de finales del siglo XVI sitúa este lugar en los terrenos de la Ermita del Cerro de los Mártires, en San Fernando (Cádiz). Otra teoría reciente sostiene que pudieron morir en el Cerro de Torrejosa o Almodóvar (en término de Tarifa a 5 km de Facinas), pues este lugar se encuentra en el Valle de Ojén, nombre derivado de Ursianus, se encuentra en el camino de Mérida a la Tingitana, y el cerro corresponde a la descripción que de él ofrece el Pasionario como una atalaya sobre los campos de alrededor.​ Las primeras manifestaciones de su culto aparecen en la región andaluza, según dos inscripciones del 662 y 674 respectivamente. Actualmente son patronos de las ciudades de Mérida y de Cádiz, así como copatronos de San Fernando (Cádiz).​ (es)

The body of Germanus was buried at Mérida and Servandus at Cádiz, and then later translated to Seville. The hill of fundus Ursianus has been identified with Cerro de los Mártires (San Fernando) and with Cerro de Torrejosa near Facinas (Tarifa). (en)
