She is venerated as a saint in Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran, and Eastern Orthodox Christianity. Lucia is one of eight women (including the Virgin Mary) explicitly commemorated by Catholics in the Canon of the Mass. Her traditional feast day, known as Saint Lucy’s Day, is observed by Western Christians on December 13. In the Middle Ages, she was honored and remained a well-known saint in early modern England.
