Itinerary

  • Basilica di Sant'Apollinare Nuovo

    Start your journey with a visit to Sant'Apollinare Nuovo, a stunning basilica known for its colorful mosaics and impressive architecture. It was once a Palatine Chapel and later became a place of worship. The mosaic panels in the nave tell biblical stories from both the Old and New Testaments. Marvel at the craftsmanship and vibrant colors that bring these stories to life. See the Procession of the Magi, a breathtaking portrayal of the three wise men traveling to meet the infant Jesus.

    30 minutes

  • Dante's tomb and Quadrarco of Braccioforte

    Visit the Tomb of Dante, a national monument built in 1781 to honor the famous poet Dante Alighieri.

    20 minutes

    Located next to the Basilica of San Francesco in central Ravenna, this site is full of history. Then, explore the underwater mosaics of the Basilica of San Francesco, revealing more of Ravenna's cultural treasures.

    30 minutes

  • Mausoleo di Galla Placidia

    Continue to the Mausoleum of Galla Placidia, a magnificent monument featuring early Christian art. This UNESCO World Heritage Site will enchant you with its mosaics on the walls and ceiling. The deep blue tones and intricate designs take you back to the 5th century. Admire the beautiful mosaic of the Good Shepherd, a symbol of the Christian faith.

    20 minutes

  • N/A

    Next, visit the Basilica of San Vitale, a masterpiece of Byzantine architecture. The intricate mosaics covering the walls and ceilings will captivate you.
