Simon of Trent (Italian: Simonino di Trento; German: Simon von Trient, also known as Simon Unverdorben, 'Simon Immaculate'; 1472–1475), also known as Saint Simon (or Simeon) of Trent, was a young boy from the city of Trent, in the Prince-Bishopric of Trent (now Trentino, Italy), whose disappearance and death were blamed on the city's Jewish community in a famous example of what would become known as the blood libel.
