Biography
French missionary of the Paris Foreign Missions Society, who was martyred in Seoul, Korea on 8 March 1866.
Following the arrest and execution of Bishop Siméon-François Berneux on 7 March 1866, all but three of the French missionaries in Korea were also captured and executed. The persecutions triggered the French Campaign against Korea in October–November 1866.
Like the other martyrs, Pierre Henri Dorie was canonized by Pope John Paul II on 6 May 1984 under the name Peter Henricus Dorie.
