The first church was built in the 4th century over several pagan tombs which was the custom and symbolized good over evil. It was originally named ‘Basilica Apostolorum’, (Basilica of the Apostles.) during the time of Constantine. It was renamed in the 9th century and is the burial place of St Sebastian
