Basilica of San Vicente, ÁVILA

Art print. Basilica of San Vicente de Ávila

In the year 306, during the persecution of Diocletian, the brothers Vicente (of Ávila), Sabina and Cristeta suffered martyrdom for refusing to sign a document in which they had to acknowledge having offered sacrifices to the Roman gods.
According to tradition, their bodies were deposited in a hole in the rock, and the current basilica was later built on that place. Legend says that it was the Jew himself responsible for their death who, repentant, decided to build a temple to bury them, a passage that appears in a relief of the cenotaph.
