Saint Florian, Patron Saint of FireFighters Florian von Lorch- Saint Florian is the Protector of those in Danger of Fire, and Flood - Pray to him for Abundant Harvest and for Success in All Adventures - He's the Patron of Brewers, and Soap Makers. Feast Day ~ May 4. In this icon Florian is pictured with a guardian angel. Legend has it that Florian, General in the Roman Army, saved an entire village from flames by dousing it with a single bucket of water. Florian refused to denounce his Christian faith. In 304, the Romans tied a millstone around his neck, and drowned him in the River Enns, Austria. An eagle watched guard over Florian's body until he was found by a woman, and given a Christian burial.
