Ploaghe - Sant'Antonio di Salvenero

09 Mar 2016 1 2 161
Upto the end of the 18th century a large village existed here, named Salvenero. This village had four churches in medieval times, I could still find two of them. Today the area around belongs to different villages and is covered by industrial zones and a large intersection. I had found San Michele di Salvenero easily, as it is located next to the road, Sant'Antonio di Salvenero is only a stonethrow away, but somehow hidden. To reach it, I climbed over a fence and could even see from here the ruins of a third church on the other side of the valley. Not much is known about Sant'Antonio di Salvenero. The church was probably erected within the 13th century. The two adjoining buildings date to the 17th century. Of course, the church was locked.
