He was born and raised by a wealthy family in Lisbon, Portugal, and died in Padua, Italy. Noted by his contemporaries for his forceful preaching, expert knowledge of scripture, and undying love and devotion to the poor and the sick, he was the most-quickly canonized saint. He was proclaimed a Doctor of the Church on 16 January 1946. He is also the patron saint of lost things.
It is remarkable that Saint Anthony was canonized within a year of his death.
