Basilica dei Santi Martiri Anauniesi

The church of Sanzeno dedicated to Sisinio, Martirio and Alessandro, the martyrs of 397, built from 1480

The basilica dei Santi Martiri di Sanzeno is one of the oldest churches in the Val di Non: the present building was commissioned by the prince bishop Giovanni Hinderbach from 1480, on the site of a 13th-century church. It is dedicated to Sisinio, Martirio and Alessandro, the three missionaries killed in the valley in 397, and it preserves two reliquaries containing the ashes and some remains of their pyre. From here starts the path cut into the rock that leads to the sanctuary of San Romedio.

Gipthe bearded vulture of Valli del Noce

Hi, I am Gip. I am a bearded vulture: my species had vanished from the Alps in the 1930s, and the first one born in Trentino in at least a hundred and fifty years took flight from Val di Rabbi this past 16 July.

Ask me about places, the valleys or the people who work here. I answer with what is in our pages: if I do not know something, I will tell you.
