St. Servul from Socerb / San Servolo
was a genuine Istrian saint from the 3rd century who died a martyr's
death. A number of more or less apocryphal saints are also known in
Istra, particularly Saint Sergej (Sergius) from Črni Kal. The
veneration of these two saints spread widely in surrounding areas as
well, the former being much venerated in the Veneto, whilst even today
Trieste bears as its city crest the halberd of St Sergius. [From:
