Saint Romulus of Genoa (Italian:Romolo, also called Remo) was Bishop of Genoa in 641. He died at Villa Matutiæ [1], a town on the Italian Riviera which later adopted his name, becoming Sanremo.

His feast has been celebrated on 22 December, but also on 13 October, the traditional date of his death. Today in the Archdiocese of Genoa he is celebrated along with the bishop saints Valentine and Felix on 6 November.
