Born in Paola, Calabria, he was known for his ascetic lifestyle and deep spirituality. Francis was credited with performing miracles, including healing the sick and even crossing the sea on his cloak. He became a spiritual advisor to King Louis XI of France in his final years. Canonized in 1519, Francis of Paola is venerated as the patron saint of sailors and fishermen, symbolising humility and devotion to God.
