San Costantino, Religious shrine in Sedilo, Italy.

The stone shrine stands on an elevated position near Tirso River, featuring traditional Sardinian architectural elements with a central nave and two side chapels.

Documents from 1265 CE, discovered in an ancient altar in Norbello, provide the earliest written evidence of Constantine worship in central Sardinia.

The shrine hosts the Ardia festival each July, where skilled horsemen participate in a commemorative race representing the Battle of Milvian Bridge.

The shrine connects to trail G-611, a 6.3-kilometer path leading to Pedra Lada ford, with an elevation gain of 119 meters through Mediterranean terrain.

Local legends tell of a freed Sardinian slave who built the shrine after receiving a vision from Constantine during his captivity in Africa.
