Arriving in Poland, they had nowhere to stay, and lacking a place to shelter, they decided to settle in the wooded area of Kazimeierz, south of Gniezno.
All belonging to the Camaldola order, these apostles feel in their hearts and in their veins the flame of the Gospel and wish to take it to every corner.
However, their audacity and love were cut short on this earthly plane, when a group of people decided to kill them.
During a night in November of the year 1003, a group of bandits who thought that these travelers recently arrived from Italy possessed fortune and valuables, murdered them while they slept.
They thought that sneaking up and killing them was the best way to obtain that treasure, and death surprised them in their beds.
