The remains of an early Christian church (5th -6th century AD) have been packaged in a stark red utilitarian exterior. The exquisite floor mosaics have been painstakingly restored, with the pretty deer and doves around the baptismal font of particular interest. A raised platform allows you to take in the whole floor area as well as watch a short video in English telling you about the history of the basilica.The website offers a very well written and detailed description of the mosaics and is definitely worth reading to find out more.
