The city of mosaics
A tour that takes us on a discovery of the complex Christian symbolism expressed in Byzantine mosaics.
Suitable for the visually impaired, thanks to the possibility opportunity to touch the numerous sarcophagi inside the magnificent basilica of Sant'Apollinare in Classe. We will discover the natural elements present in the apsidal basin of the church thanks to the black mosaics of the Classis Museum that allow a comparison between nature and the mosaic depiction.
To conclude, we will offer an interesting mosaic workshop in which you can make one of the Christian symbols of your choice.
