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.
