Once, sometime around the 9th century, a little mausoleum was built here, dedicated to San Satiro. Some time later a small church was built on top, which became an important pilgrimage stop. In the 15th century, the church got a massive facelift and became a famous early example of an architectural trick known as a trompe l'oei (an illusion that makes a 2D object look like 3D). To see it, look behind the high altar, the columns and the arches. It looks like an enclave, but is actually a painting. To the left of the transept, see the Cappella della Pieta, with its Byzantine frescoes, Romanesque columns and statue of Saint Satiro.
