Via Sancti Martin

Martin is beheaded by the heretics and expelled from Savaria

László Koller's work depicts the death sentence of Saint Quirinus and the beheading and expulsion of Saint Martin.

- On the western edge of the town, a theatre was already standing in the 3rd century. It was also one of the centres of the imperial cult. It was here that Bishop Quirinus of Sicily was tried by the secular authorities and sentenced to death. The course of the trial is described in detail in the Quirinus Passio. The ruins of the building survived until the second half of the 19th century. Even in the 1880s 'quarrying' was still going on here. The stones of the old Roman Roman theatre were used for construction work. The semicircular depression in the hill reminds us of the theatre. Old Roman stones can also be found in the side wall of the deep road leading to the nearby water tower.

The road from the former theatre to the Perint bridge is of particular importance. This is the road that took St Quirinus from the place of his condemnation to the bridge over the Sibaris (Perint) stream, the site of his execution.

In the Middle Ages, this route reappears in the life of the city as a 'sacred road', since the road from the city to the Calvary was a line of stations until the late 1800s.

- Martin returned to the land of his parents and baptised his mother. The majority of the town's inhabitants at that time followed the Arian school of Christianity. Martin fell out with the heretics, who chased him out of town.
