Ravenna

Emilia Romagna, Italy

Ravenna is a historically rich city in Emilia-Romagna, Italy, famed for its exceptional collection of early Christian and Byzantine mosaics, many of which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

It served as the capital of the Western Roman Empire and later the Byzantine Exarchate, leaving a legacy of eight major monuments, including the Basilica of San Vitale, celebrated for its intricate 6th-century mosaics, and the Mausoleum of Galla Placidia with some of the oldest and most beautiful Byzantine mosaics.

The city also features the Basilica of Sant'Apollinare Nuovo and the Mausoleum of Theodoric, each reflecting different eras of Ravenna’s complex history. Beyond its mosaics, Ravenna offers historical sites like Dante’s Tomb and the Basilica di San Francesco, tranquil streets, and a calm Adriatic coastline. Modern-day Ravenna blends its ancient heritage with a vibrant cultural scene and serves as a key destination for lovers of art, history, and architecture.
