Cantina dei Santi, Medieval church cellar in Romagnano Sesia, Italy.

The Cantina dei Santi features underground stone walls arranged in herringbone patterns and opens to an atrium with a double portico leading to two rooms.

The structure stands as the last remnant of the San Silvano Benedictine Abbey, which was established in 1008 and later managed by future Pope Pius IV.

The interior room displays 15th-century frescoes depicting Biblical scenes from King David's life, representing important religious art in Novara province.

Visitors can access the building through a small lane connected to IV Novembre Park in the old Badia district of Romagnano Sesia.

The structure served as a wine cellar from 1777, with barrel marks still visible on walls adorned with medieval religious frescoes and heraldic symbols.
