| This structure of remarkable dimensions that today rises in a green field certainly goes not unnoticed. It was built before the 450 A.C. with materials of ancient constructions and over the years it was destroyed by many invasions Goths, Saracens, Normans, Turks and wars. The basilica was rebuilt two times till the final undoing happened during the bombardments of the Second World war. Today only parts of the apse and of the external walls remain, while you can see parts of the paving in the Byzantine Museum. |
