The martyr St. Dionysius died in the year 285 in Paris. After a long imprisonment and several deferred executions three martyrs were beheaded with a sword and their bodies were thrown into the River Seine. The body of St. Dionysius was buried by his followers after getting it out of the water. St. Denis is the patron saint of both Paris and Tilburg. The churches of the parishes Goirke and Heike are dedicated to St. Dionysius. Today Eric Tenin is making Paris Daily Photo for five years: congratulations!
