Titian of Oderzo

Who is Titian of Oderzo?

Saint Titian of Oderzo was a 7th-century bishop of Opitergium, in the Province of Treviso.

Titian was born in the middle of the 6th century in a noble family of Eraclea in the Veneto region, and served as a deacon and priest to Florian, bishop of Opitergium. Titian devoted himself to serving the poor, and when Florian stepped down from his episcopal office to work as a missionary, Titian was declared his successor. Titian devoted himself to his diocese, and was an opponent of Arianism. Titian died in 632, traditionally on January 16, and was buried in the cathedral of Oderzo.
