St. Denis & Companions. (d. 258) Martyr & patron Saint of France, first Bishop of Paris. His popularity is due to a series of legends, especially those connecting him with the great abbey church of St. Denis in Paris. He was for a time confused with the writer now called Pseudo-Dionysius. After his martyrdom on Montmartre (literally, "mountain of martyrs") in Paris, he carried his head to a village NE of the city. St. Genevieve built a basilica over his tomb in the 6th century. YBH
St. Denis Basilica
St Denis is a mediaeval abbey church about 10km north of Paris, and has been the burial place of almost every French monarch since the 10th century. The original mausoleum for St Denis (martyred in about AD 250) was built on this site in the early 4th century. A larger abbey church was then built over the mausoleum in the mid 8th century. However the current basilica was begun in the early 12th century under Abbot Suger. This is a detail of the tympanum above the north portal on the west front. It shows part of the story of the martyrdom of St Denis. This is a relatively modern sculpture, created in the 19th century by Félix Brun.
