Church with mosaics visible on both sides
This church, whose mosaics have lost none of their bright colours, was built at the end of the 5th century by Emperor Theodoric. The superb mosaics visible on either side of the central nave depict two processions: on the right, a line of holy martyrs leaving the Emperor's palace and arriving at the blessing Christ; on the left, holy martyrs led by the Magi, leaving the port of Classe and arriving at the Virgin and Child.

De beaux mosaïques recouvrent les murs de la nef avec une procession féminine à gauche, vers la Vierge avec l'Enfant Jesus, et avec une procession masculine sur le mur de gauche, vers le Christ. Un petit cloître existe aussi sur le côté gauche de la nef.

Les mosaïques sont très belles mais avons préféré celles de San Vital,
Le ticket combiné est très pratique si vous avez l'intention de visiter les autres sites de Ravenne. JPaul
