Vincenzo Romano (3 June 1751 – 20 December 1831) – born Vincenzo Domenico Romano – was an Italian Roman Catholic priest born in Torre del Greco in Naples.[1][2] Romano was a parish priest of the village of Herculano who was noted for his simplistic and frugal manner of living and for his great care of orphans.[3] But the French invaders in his area in addition to some of the Italian political groups oppressed him and his work. The people of Torre del Greco granted him the nickname "The Worker Priest" due to Romano's tireless work with the poor and for his commitment to the social needs of all people in the Neapolitan region.[1][2] He was also noted for his efforts in rebuilding much of Naples following the 1794 eruption of Mount Vesuvius in which he himself cleared rubble and organized rebuilding efforts.[4][3][5]
Pope Paul VI beatified him in late 1963 after the recognition of his holiness as well as the confirmation of two miracles attributed to his intercession. The cause for his canonization had been opened on 22 September 1843 and Pope Leo XIII had named him as Venerable in 1895.[1][2] Pope Francis confirmed his canonization which was celebrated in Saint Peter's Square on 14 October 2018.
