Germanus of Normandy

Germanus of Normandy, also known as Germanus the Scot (Germain le Scot), is a Christian saint venerated especially in Normandy. He was a disciple of Germanus of Auxerre, from whom he took his baptismal name.

In iconography he is frequently represented with a wheel, representing the legend that he crossed the English Channel on a wheel and arrived in Normandy near Flamanville, or with a dragon, representing the legend that he killed a seven-headed dragon at Trou Baligan in the Cotentin.

His aid is invoked for the relief of fevers and for illnesses of children.
