Saint Satyrus of Arezzo (fl. 304 AD) is venerated as the first bishop of Arezzo. [1] The Catholic Encyclopedia states that Arezzo "became a bishopric about 304, under St. Satyrus. St. Donatus, his successor, is patron of the cathedral of St. Peter the Apostle." [2]

He should not be confused with Satyrus of Milan, the brother of Saint Ambrose.
