Where was St. Catherine of Alexandria born?
She was born in Alexandria, Egypt.
When did St. Catherine of Alexandria die?
According to legend, St. Catherine of Alexandria was beheaded in 305 CE, in Alexandria. However, we can not even be sure whether Catherine of Alexandria actually existed.St. Catherine was never mentioned before the ninth century, and some assiduous research has failed to identify Catherine with any historical person. Donald Attwater calls the story of St. Catherine the most preposterous legend of its kind, citing the lack of any positive evidence that she ever existed outside the mind of some Greek writer who first composed what he intended to be simply an edifying romance. Even her name, which comes from the Greek katharos, ('pure'), is suspiciously apt for a virgin martyr, raising the possibility that her legend originated as an allegory. With no reliable information about St. Catherine, we can not say that any of the traditions about how or when she died are true.
