The Basilica of Sant'Antioco Martire, in the historic center of the island of the same name, is one of the oldest places of worship in Sardinia. Built between the 4th and 7th centuries over a Punic necropolis, it houses the relics of Sardinia's patron saint, a physician originally from Mauretania. The building, enlarged by the monks of Saint Victor of Marseille and remodeled in the Baroque period, preserves a complex complex of early Christian catacombs beneath the altar, which are still open to visitors.

The original church was built in the 5th century. Over time, it has been repeatedly rebuilt and expanded. The most recent restoration took place in 2019.
