Beauty and Spirituality with the UNESCO sites of Ravenna and the art of mosaics. The UNESCO heritage of Basilicas and Mausoleums of rare beauty are all concentrated in the historic city center.
The UNESCO heritage of Basilicas and Mausoleums of rare beauty are all concentrated in the historic city center. Ravenna's monuments are stone and gold, simplicity and hieratic, physical and metaphysical; there are no equals in the world.
Justinian and Theodora welcome you in the majestic gold of the Basilica of San Vitale while the small Mausoleum of Galla Placidia will embrace you with cobalt blue tiles that embrace a dome of golden stars to end with the ivories of the Chapel of St. Andrew.
The visit ends in a workshop of a Mosaic master where you can learn about this ancient art, the materials (enamels, gold, marbles) and admire the production of copies of ancient wall mosaics, floors up to contemporary mosaics.
