Set in Palazzo di Venezia, overlooking the iconic Vittoriano monument, San Marco Basilica stands proudly at the center of its eponymous square. With origins dating back to the 4th century, this basilica, envisioned by Pope Saint Marco, has undergone transformations, notably by Pope Paul II in 1468, who honored it as "the church of the Venetians in Rome." Explore this historical treasure trove and delve into its remarkable artifacts and excavations with your ticket.
Marvel at the Renaissance facade of San Marco Basilica, featuring an exquisite portico supported by semi-columns, showcasing the brilliance of that era. Admire the Romanesque bell tower embellished with ancient ceramics. Below the basilica lies a surprising discovery from restoration endeavors: the remains of martyrs, including San Marco himself, interred beneath the main altar.
Despite its Baroque elements, the basilica houses treasures spanning different periods, such as a captivating 9th-century apse mosaic. Don't miss the intricately sculpted tomb of Leonardo Pesaro by Antonio Canova in 1796. Enrich your visit with an audio guide, available in Italian, English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese, providing detailed narratives and enriching insights.
