  ALL SAINTS CELEBRATED IN MAY Saints celebrated on the 31st of May SAINT GALLA, MARTYR  Saint Galla is mentioned in the writings of St Gregory of Tours. He states that she is buried in the Basilica of St Venerandus at Clermont in Auvergne (apud Avernos). This suggests that already at the time of this holy author nothing more was known of St Galla than her grave. In the martyrologies she appears with a St Alexander, of whom no other details are related, either. Yet they may have not suffered martyrdom, as some accounts suggest.
