The image of this city is strongly linked to its steel mills and industrial development, but Terni is also one of the oldest cities in Umbria, as the Roman ruins of the Teatro Fausto confirm. Interesting local churches include the Duomo, the ancient Chiesa di Sant’Alò (a tiny Romansque gem), the Chiesa di San Salvatore, probably built on the site of a former Roman Temple of the Sun, the Chiesa di San Lorenzo and the Chiesa di San Pietro.
The Basilica di S. Valentino holds the remains of Saint Valentine, bishop of Terni martyred in the 3rd century A.D. and patron saint of lovers.
