    The Collegiate Church of San Candido (Italian: Collegiata di San Candido) was founded in the 8th century as part of the monastery initiated by Duke Tassilo III of Bavaria, which was intended to serve the Christianization of the local Slavs. Originally built as a Benedictine monastery, it was converted into a collegiate church in the 12th century.
    The accessible crypt was originally used as the burial place of the collegiate patrons and housed their relics until 1969. It has housed a baptismal font since 1970. Following restorations from 1967 to 1970, the crypt once again exhibits its 13th-century Romanesque proportions. Of particular note is a Romanesque wooden sculpture of Saint Candidus.

      Beautiful, simple but impressive Romanesque church.

        A visit to Innichen town center is worthwhile.
