Nicholas Tavelic, OFM (Croatian: Nikola Tavelić) was a Croatian Franciscan friar and missionary who died a martyr's death in Jerusalem on November 14, 1391. He was beatified with his companions, who included friars from Italy and France. All four members of his group have been declared saints by the Catholic Church, making Tavelic the first canonized Croatian saint.[3][4]
