Valerie of Limoges, according to legend, an associate of Saint Martial, a cephalophoric martyr
Around 985 at least part of the relics was transferred to the Benedictine abbey at Chambon-sur-Voueize, to the north-east of Limoges, which became a centre of her cult.

Images of the martyrdom became an important theme of Limousin art, both painting and sculpture, and later Limoges enamels.
