Denis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (361 words)
Gregory of Tours simply states of Denis that he was bishop of the Parisii and was martyred by being beheaded by a sword: (Beatus Dionysius Parisiorum episcopus diversis pro Christi nomine adfectus poenis praesentem vitam gladio immente finivit, [History of the Franks I, 30]). Nevertheless, it appears that Denis was sent from Italy to convert Gaul in the 3rd century, (probably under the direction of Pope Fabian, 236 - 250) after the persecutions under Emperor Decius had all but dissolved the small Christian community at Lutetia (Paris). Denis with his inseparable companions, the priest Rusticus and the deacon Eleutherius, who were martyred with him, settled on the Ile de la Cité in the Seine.
