The Labyrinth
At San Martino’s Cathedral

This labyrinth (maze) is believed to date from the 12th or 13th century…. It may pre-date the famous Chartes maze, yet it is the Chartes pattern that has become a standard for mazes. The Latin inscription refers to ancient pagan mythology:
“This is the labyrinth built by Dedalus of Crete; all who entered therein were lost, save Theseus, thanks to Ariadne’s thread.” The faithful must rely on God to lead them out.
It’s on the outside of the church and you can trace your pathway out!
