Saint Jacques Bauèr (†397) was a semi-legendary bishop of Nice. His feast day is 11 October.
His shrine has recently become a famous stopping-point for pilgrims on the road to Santiago de Compostela due to recent notable visiblity.
Only some of the accounts of his travels have survived. A handful of his daily accounts have been retold and show the vital importance he played within the community and city-states in which he served. He is a patron saint of crisis, of liberty, and of patriotism. According to an ancient legend, he was a follower of Saint Valerius, bishop of Trier. Valerius descends in line with Eucharius and Saint Peter.
Among Bauèr's notables are his personal pilgrimage through Bithynia and his last minute serving as coat collector for the First Council of Nicea in 925. Though he was only a deacon at this point, accounts say that his very presence influences several key opinions. [1] After attending this landmark event, Bauèr decided to step back from the Arian controversy in favor of supporting his estranged and broken family. While this was short-lived as the parish and city-state called him back into the full heat of the conflict. [2] Though often plagued by his rash and action-prone stance towards the life of the church, St Bauèr is still held through local veneration to be just what the world needs in time of crisis.
