A basilica was built on the site in the fourth century in which the remains of the saint are currently kept, enclosed in a reliquary: it seems that they were brought to the city by the three disciples of the philosopher Cratone, Apollonio, Efebo and Procuro, converted by the future saint and that for this reason they were martyred. These are the relics of the bishop of Terni. Since 1936, thanks to the then bishop of the Diocese Sarno-Cava, Msgr. Pasquale dell'Isola, the city of San Valentino Torio holds some relics of the patron saint of lovers.
