Saint Sebastian is invoked against the plague, other epidemics and as the patron saint of the fountains, since his intercession was awarded to the so-called Justinian plague in 680 in Rome. His cult grew mainly since the Black Death in the middle of the 14th century. He is also the patron saint of the dying, iron traders, potters, gardeners, tanners, brush-makers, the police in Germany and Italy, soldiers and rifle brotherhoods, war invalids, gunsmiths, iron and tin foundries, stonemasons, hunters, corpse-bearers, forest workers and is used against the enemies of the Called church.
