Saint Ceccardus of Luni (died 860), otherwise San Ceccardo, was a bishop of Luni in Liguria, Italy, who was believed to have been killed by Viking pirates, probably in 860 when they sacked the city of Luni, and was declared a martyr. He later became the patron saint of Carrara. His feast day is 16 June.[1][2]
