Collegiata di San Secondo
The relics of San Secondo, Asti's patron, rest in the crypt of this Gothic church, begun in 1256 and completed in 1462. Its bright interior holds Gandolfino da Roreto's Adoration of the Magi and a chapel of historic Palio banners. Open daily and free; crypt visits go through the sacristan.
