RAVENNA' TREASURES IN WINTER 2007/2008

During the 5th century Ravenna was the last capital of the Western Empire and heir to the greatness of Rome, and down through the ages it has played a leading role in European history. It became the chief city of the Roman-Barbarian kingdom under Theodoric the Goth and subsequently the seat of the Exarchate after being re-conquered by the Eastern Empire. Its splendid monuments bear witness to its role as political, commercial and artistic centre of a succession of different civilizations: an extraordinary complex of basilicas, baptisteries and mausoleums in which the harmony of classical construction blends with the magnificent splendour of precious marbles and rich Byzantine mosaic decoration. Side by side with these, further attractions include the architectural heritage of the period of Venetian dominion, the splendid Renaissance cloisters and the 16th century Classense Library.
