The baptistery, one of the mouments attributed to S.Sabino (516 - 566), was integral part of a complex of Christian buildings as the Basilica of the Salvatore and that of S. Maria. The building, with 12 sides, is preserved thanks to the presence of a crusher that, in the 800, has utilized the ancient structures, without twisting its plant and arresting the inexorable destruction of it.
