Saint Vitalis of Milan (Italian: San Vitale) was an early Christian martyr and saint married to Saint Valeria. They have been the parents of the Saints Gervasius and Protasius. According to the Tradition, when he encouraged Saint Ursicinus of Ravenna to be steadfast in his execution, Vitalis was discovered to be a Christian. A judge, Paulinus, ordered Vitalis to be racked and then buried alive. He is honored as the principal patron saint of the city of Ravenna. His feast is commemorated on April 28.
