Sant’Antioco Martire, Minor basilica in Sant'Antioco, Italy
The Sant'Antioco Martire basilica features a central martyrion structure from the fourth century and contains several stone sarcophagi near the lateral nave point.
The basilica underwent reconstruction in the sixth century after the dome collapsed, followed by a period of limited documentation until the twelfth century.
The catacombs beneath the basilica contain archaeological evidence of early Christian and Jewish communities, including ancient inscriptions and candlestick representations.
The church stands at Piazza Parrocchia 22 in Sant'Antioco, with catacombs accessible through guided tours during regular visiting hours.
The underground network extends through Punic hypogeal tombs, making these catacombs the only example of their kind in Sardinia.
