Details

Died May, 1231

The martyrs of Kantara were thirteen Orthodox monks from the Kantara monastery in Cyprus, who were persecuted and executed in May 1231 on the request of Pope Gregory IX and under the direction of his emissary, Andrew. After an inquisition trial for refusing the use of unleavened bread for the Eucharist, they were imprisoned, tortured, and then burned alive. One of them died in prison before the execution.
