Biography

Ferdinand of Cajazzo, also known as Ferdinand of Aragon, was the fifth Benedictine bishop of Caiazzo in Campania, Italy, during the 11th century. He is celebrated as a saint in the Catholic Church on June 27, particularly in Alvignano, likely due to confusion with the canonized King Ferdinand III of Castile (13th century), whose relics are held in the local church.
