Founded in the 7th century by the Lombards, the Benevento Cathedral reached its zenith in the 12th-13th centuries when it was rebuilt in the Romanesque style and adorned with its famous bronze doors. Tragically, the cathedral was almost completely destroyed by Allied bombing in 1943, though its greatest treasure—the bronze doors—was saved. After the war, the cathedral was reconstructed in a modern Romanesque style and reconsecrated in 1965, becoming a powerful symbol of the city's resilience where visitors can still see the surviving original façade, the bell tower, and the rescued doors.

As a patron saint, this hermitage has a name that is on everyone's lips, but probably only a few people will know the person behind it: the feast day of Saint Silvestro is on December 31st. He lived at the end of the third and beginning of the fourth century and was bishop of Rome when Emperor Constantine - later generations gave him the nickname "the Great" - recognized Christianity as a religion with the so-called "Edict of Tolerance" of Milan, and thus - at least temporarily - the period of bloody persecution of Christians ended.
