See more of Ravenna with a combo ticket for San Vitale and Sant Apollinare Nuovo, with an included visit to St. Andrew's Chapel inside the Archiepiscopal Museum.

Check out the San Vitale, an octagonal 6th-century wonder that combines classic Roman and Byzantine architectural elements. Along its walls, stories from the Old Testament are depicted using thousands of tiny tiles to create intricate mosaics. Adjacent mosaics pay loyal tribute to Roman royalty – Emporer Justinian I and Empress Theodora.

You can also visit the mausoleum of Galla Placidia, dating from the first half of the 5th century which is not far from the Basilica of San Vitale.

Visit the Sant Apollinare Nuovo, and in credible architectural feat erected by Ostrogoth king Theodoric the Great in the 6th century. The discreet Sant Apollinare Nuovo is a UNESCO World Heritage Site filled with hidden treasures.

Venture inside and discover floor-to-ceiling mosaics from the Byzantine era, once painted black by Pope Gregory the Great to keep parishioners focused on prayer, and reconstructed after damage from WWI. Find the oldest mosaic cycle related to the life of Christ.

Witness the famous St. Andrew's Chapel. Discover evidence of the religious divide during the early Byzantine era that can be seen clearly at St. Andrew's Chapel, where more mosaics tell the story of important people and places of Ravenna.

Learn why this site is dubbed the “hidden pearl” of the Archbishop Museum. As the private chapel for the bishops of Ravenna, it contains epigraphs, the Cathedral treasure, and an ivory throne of bishop Maximian.

Witness the Neonian Baptistery, named after Bishop Neon, who continued its construction after his predecessor, Ursus. Inside, it stands out for the decoration of the entire mosaic dome dating back to the time of Bishop Neone.
