Victor of Braga
Victor of Braga (died ), also known as Saint Victor (), was a Portuguese Christian martyr. His feast day is 12 April. Sources

Victor's very existence has frequently been refuted. His story is based on the Breviary of Braga, which was credulous enough to admit all of the forgeries of "Julian Perez", the alleged eleventh century priest of Toledo. However, a short passion from the Abbey of Santo Domingo de Silos in the Province of Burgos, written at the end of the 11th century, could reflect an ancient tradition. It says that Victor met one day with the procession that accompanied the image of a pagan god and that, confessing himself a Christian, he was sentenced to death and beheaded.
