Ruin of St. Valentine

About Ruin of St. Valentine

The ruin "Valentinskirchlein" was restored and inaugurated in 2018.

The ruin of St. Valentine was the precurser of today's church in Salonetto/Schlaneid. The wooden church was build in the 8th century, but was replaced by a stone church just one century later. In the following 1000 years the church was architecturally changed multiple times, and completely renewed in 1770, when the church was replaced by a new one in the village center.
