A bishop of Martigny is documented as participant in the Council of Aquileia in 381 AD: Theodorus, episcopus Octodorensis. Between 1990 and 1993 remains of a church were excavated below the church of Notre-Dame de la Visitation, to the north of the city. It was installed in the middle of the fourth century inside an older complex, probably a suburban villa. A hall was built (9.30 x 3.80 m.) with a large apse. In the second half of the fourth century the church was enlarged and a small baptistery was added.
