It's said Italy was a country of Saints, poets and navigators. There's no more trace of the poets and navigators but, fortunately, there are traces of the Saints. All the Italian towns are voted to a Saint and one of these is San Gennaro, well-known for his miracle.
San Gennaro was born between Naples and Benevento in 272 AD (the exact place of his birth is not clear) and was a bishop and martyr of the Christian church. His story tells one day Gennaro visited the Deacon Sossio who was in prison. The Deacon was previously arrested by the governor of Campania during the persecution of Christians. Starting from that moment, for Gennaro began a journey that led him to his martyrdom. A path, however, shrouded in mystery.
