Svatý Roch žil na přelomu 13. a 14. století. Pocházel z Montpellier ve Francii. Po smrti rodičů rozdal všechen majetek a vypravil se do Říma. Cestou se obětavě staral o lidi nakažené morem a ve špitálech pomáhal několik let. Když se nakonec sám morem nakazil, odešel do samoty k řece Pád, aby tam zemřel. Uzdravil se však a od smrti hladem mu pomohl pes, který mu nosil chléb. Po návratu domů zemřel ve vězení jako údajný špeh.
