Ravenna

Ravenna is just a few kilometres from the Adriatic coast. The former lagoon city symbolises the union of Orient and Occident and in past centuries was the capital of the Western Roman Empire, the Ostrogothic Empire and the Byzantine Empire. The city’s many monuments, churches, baptisteries and mausoleums date back to these times. Be sure to visit the Basilica of Sant’Apollinare Nuovo with its fantastic mosaics. Piazza del Popolo is the central piazza and Ravenna’s living room. The surrounding old town offers everything your heart desires: charming alleyways, cosy cafés and plenty of shopping opportunities. A trip to the Ferrari Museum is highly recommended for anyone who is a fan of sports cars. The sight of these classic cars will definitely make the heart of all auto aficionados beat faster!
