In the first part is Andrej's cross. The Apostle Andrew, the bishop's baptismal patron, is said to have worked in Bithynia, Thrace, and Greece; thus in the area of present-day Russia and the Balkans. In his old age he settled as a bishop in Patras, where around 60 AD, during the reign of Emperor Nero, he suffered martyrdom for refusing to deny Jesus. He was sentenced to torture and crucifixion on an obliquely placed cross. | In the first part is Andrej's cross.
