A very ancient church named after a saint who was in 1969 removed from the Roman Catholic calendar of saints for the lack of details of her life.

A very ancient church named after a saint who was in 1969 removed from the Roman Catholic calendar of saints for the lack of details of her life. But the church retains the name and is well worth visiting for an excellent 4th Century mosaic and attractive decorations on the facade.
