Altre informazioni:
The Sanctuary of San Romedio is one of the Non Valley’s little gems, as well as one of Europe’s most characteristic places of pilgrimage. For this reason alone it is worth a visit. Perched on a rock 70 metres up, it is found close to the town of Sanzeno and is made up of five interconnected churches, which were built between 1000 and 1900. It represents historic evidence of the roots of Christianity in the Non Valley, with Sanzeno being the spiritual “capital” of the area. San Romedio, amongst history and legend Heir to a wealthy Bavarian family, Romedio lived between the 4th and 5th centuries. After a pilgrimage to Rome, he donated all his worldly goods to the church and became a hermit in the Non Valley, living in a few caves close to where the sanctuary stands today. Legend has it that he was able to tame the bear that mauled his horse and afterwards rode on it to Trento. The episode is commemorated by the wooden statue found next to the sanctuary’s entrance.
