From Wikipedia
The Euphrasian Basilica (Croatian: Eufrazijeva bazilika, Italian: Basilica Eufrasiana) or the Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption of Mary is a Roman Catholic basilica in Poreč, Croatia. The episcopal complex, including, apart the basilica itself, a sacristy, a baptistery and the bell tower of the nearby archbishop's palace, is an excellent example of early Byzantine architecture in the Mediterranean region.
The Euphrasian basilica has for the most part retained its original shape, but accidents, fires and earthquakes have altered a few details. Since it is the third church to be built on the same site, it conceals previous buildings, for example the great floor mosaic of the previous basilica from the 5th century. Because of its exceptional value, it has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1997. The Basilica is also the Cathedral of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Poreč-Pula.

Because of its exceptional value, it has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1997. The Basilica is also the Cathedral of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Poreč-Pula.
The earliest basilica was dedicated to Saint Maurus of Parentium and dates back to the second half of the 4th century. The floor mosaic from its oratory, originally part of a large Roman house, is still preserved in the church garden. This oratorium was already expanded in the same century into a church composed of a nave and one aisle (basilicae geminae). The fish on the floor mosaic dates from this period. Coins with the portrayal of emperor Valens (365–378), found in the same spot, confirm these dates.
The present basilica, dedicated to Mary, was built in the sixth century during the period of Bishop Euphrasius. It was built from 553 on the site of the older basilica that had become dilapidated. For the construction, parts of the former church were used and the marble blocks were imported from the coast of the Sea of Marmara. The wall mosaics were executed by Byzantian masters and the floor mosaics by local experts. The construction took about ten years. Euphrasius, holding the church in his arms, is represented on one of the mosaics on the apse, next to St. Maurus.
Following the earthquake of 1440 the southern wall of the central nave of the basilica was restored, so that in place of the windows which were destroyed, other were built in the Gothic style.[1]
Description
View of the basilica
The basilica is part of a complex composed of:
A 6th-century octagonal baptistry. Built in the 5th century together with the pre-Euphrasian basilica, and underwent considerable alterations.
A 16th-century bell tower (16th century).
A colonnaded atrium. Built after the basilica, it is covered on all four sides by a portico which houses a rich collection of stone monuments.
An Episcopal residence (The Bishop's Palace), also built in the 6th century. Very little remains of the original building.
A trefoil-shaped memorial chapel, built in the 17th and 19th centuries.
Basilica entrance.
The two aisles are separated from the nave by 18 elegant Greek marble colonnades with richly sculpted Byzantine and Romanesque capitals, decorated with depictions of animals. They all carry the monogram of Saint Euphrasius. The arches between the capitals are decorated with stucco work.
A novelty of the Euphrasian basilica is that rather than being enclosed by a straight wall, as all sacred buildings were up to that time, it makes use of the breadth and length of the apse of the central nave, built in the shape of a polygon from the outside, whilst the two aisles end in smaller semicircular apses, hollowed into the wall. Thus the Euphrasian basilica is the earliest example of a triple-apsed church in Western Europe. The atrium is a typical example of Byzantine architecture, as are the columns, the tiles on the altar rail and all the abundant mosaics. Most impressive is the representation of Christ with the apostles, and beneath it a frieze of 13 medallions with a picture of Christ as the Lamb in the centre, surrounded by 12 medallions depicting various martyrs.[1]
The church houses also holy objects and other artworks from the Palaeo-Christian, Byzantine and Middle Ages periods. A votive chapel, next to the sacristy, holds the relics of Saint Maurus and Saint Eleutherius.
Motovun in Croatia: Istria's Top Hill Town [HD]
Motovun is a village in central Istria, Croatia. The population of the village itself is 531, with a total of 983 residents in the municipality; 192 of the residents have Italian as their mother language. The Porečanka was a narrow gauge railroad that ran from Trieste to Poreč between 1902-1935, passed valley below the town.
Motovun is a medieval town that grew up on the site of an ancient city called Kastelijer. It is situated on a hill 270m (886 ft) above sea level with houses scattered all over the hill. On the inner walls are several coats-of-arms of different Motovun ruling families and two gravestones of Roman inhabitants (dating from the 1st century).
In the 10th and 11th centuries it belonged to the Bishop of Poreč. From 1278 it was taken over by Venice and surrounded by solid walls which are still intact today, and used as a walkway with unique views over the four corners of Istria. All three parts of the town are connected by a system of internal and external fortifications with towers and city gates containing elements of Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance styles, built between the 14th and 17th centuries. It is a typical example of Venetian colonial architecture.

Хорватия: Сплитский собор святого Домна
Фрагмент фильма о городе Сплит, Хорватия.
* * *
Собор обычно называют по имени святого Домна (Katedrala Sv. Duje, хорв. Dujam, хорв. Duje), бывшего в III веке епископом Салоны, хотя ему посвящена лишь колокольня собора, а храм посвящён Деве Марии. Епископ Домн в числе других христиан стал мучеником в ходе гонений христиан при Диоклетиане в 303—304 годах.
Собор находится в центре Диоклетианова дворца, его фасад обращён к западу и выходит на перистиль дворца. Сплитский собор состоит из трёх частей, построенных в разные эпохи. Основная часть храма — восьмиугольный в плане бывший мавзолей императора Диоклетиана, возведённый на стыке III и IV веков. Хоры собора построены в XVII столетии. Высокая колокольня рядом с собором была возведена в 1100 году и перестроена в 1908 году. Несмотря на различие эпох, все части собора построены из одних материалов — туфа, добытого в местных реках и белого известняка с острова Брач.
Несмотря на переделку здания бывшего мавзолея в христианский собор, архитектура строения и ряд элементов интерьера сохранились неизменными. Два ряда колонн внутри собора поддерживают богато декорированные фризы. В римскую эпоху купол мавзолея был украшен мозаикой, однако от неё ничего не осталось. Саркофаги императорской четы располагались в центре сооружения, они были уничтожены в VII веке. На фризе под куполом сохранились барельефы Диоклетиана и его жены Приски в лавровых венках.
Из числа предметов искусства христианского периода особо ценны деревянные дверные створки XIII века при входе в церковь. Они имеют размеры 5,3 на 3,6 метра и богато украшены гравировкой. На каждой створке выгравировано по 14 сцен из жизни Христа, все изображения окаймлены сложным орнаментом. Каменная кафедра слева от входа выполнена в XIII веке в романском стиле. В боковой часовне Св. Дуэ в юго-восточной нише собора находится готический алтарь XV века, авторства Бонино из Милана. Алтарь часовни Св. Станислава в северо-восточной нише с резным рельефом, изображающим бичевание Христа, выполнен Юраем Далматинцем. Северный алтарь более поздний, создан в 1767 году Г. Морлаитером в стиле барокко. Главный алтарь собора создан одновременно с хорами в XVII веке.
Крипта собора также имеет римское происхождение, в христианский период здесь была устроена часовня Святой Луции.
В сокровищнице собора хранится богатая коллекция предметов церковного искусства: ковчеги с мощами, иконы и т. д. Кроме того в собрании представлено большое количество ценных средневековых книг и рукописей.
В память Святого Дуйма ежегодно 7 мая совершается крестный ход вокруг Сплита. Литургию служат на церковно-славянском, по глаголическим книгам. При титовской власти крестный ход совершался только вокруг Сплитского собора, вокруг города было запрещено.

Oriental Venice's sacred places part 2 ( Caorle and Venice - Italy)
Oriental Venice- The close connection between Concordia Sagittaria and Caorle, safe haven of the ancient Roman colony, intensified following the barbaric invasions, which drove the inhabitants of Julia Concordia to move towards the sea.
At Caorle, at the end of the cliff, on a small hill, stands the Sanctuary of the Madonna of the Angelo. Rebuilt on the foundations of an ancient Christian basilica, it became the main place of worship; it has always been venerated by local people and by multitudes of worshippers. Within the present building of the Sanctuary, the statue of the Virgin with child dominates
the Sacred Altar. Tradition wants that the statue was found in the sea by fisherman, as narrated by the frescoes inside, who decided along with the parish priest, to dedicate this church to the Virgin Maria that exchanged her thanks in the following years to the city.In the year one thousand, as in nearby Concordia, the cathedral of Caorle was built, risen from the ruins of a pre-existing early Christian basilica. The architectural structure complies with the basilican plan of a nave and two aisles, with the central much wider and the laterals much narrower.
Externally, the facade is simple but austere at the same time, in perfect Romanesque style.
Meanwhile, in Venice stood the imposing basilica dedicated to San Marco the Evangelist, Cathedral of the city and seat of the Patriarch. The marble façade of the basilica is rich in mosaics, reliefs and recovered material. The only original mosaic out of the two hundred is the one that represents the entrance of the body of San Marco in the basilica, while inside we can find the relics of the Saint.

Pisa - 2016 (Toskana )
Pisa je grad u Toskani, središnja Italija, na desnoj obali ušća rijeke Arno u Ligursko more.
Kosi toranj je zvonik romaničke katedrale u Pisi, dio katedralnog kompleksa u Pisi. Izgradnja tornja započela je 1173. godine, ali su radovi nakon izgradnje trećeg kata obustavljeni zbog poniranja tla pod tornjem. Izgradnja je nastavljena 1275. godine i već ga se tad pokušalo ispraviti. Do 1301. godine izgrađena su još tri kata, a sedmi je kat završen krajem 14. stoljeća. Toranj je visok 55 m, promjer mu je 16 m, a vrh mu je nagnut 4 m u odnosu na temelje. Naginjao se u prosjeku 1 mm godišnje, te je stoga bio je zatvoren za posjete od 1990. do 2001. godine zbog građevinskih zahvata kojima se pokušalo zaustaviti naginjanje. Tom prilikom toranj je ispravljen za 45 cm te je ponovno otvoren za javnost.
Turistička posjeta traje 40 minuta i to zadovoljstvo uspinjanja do vrha uz 294 stepenice košta 15 €.
Pisa je još od 5. st. pr. Kr. bila važna etruščanska luka na ušću rijeke Arno. Rimljani su je pokorili 225. god. pr. Kr. i postala je glavnim gradom bogate kolonije Ligurnije. Već 313. god. Pisa dobiva biskupiju, no tek je u srednjem vijeku Pisa postala jednim od najvažnijih i najbogatijih talijanskih gradova-država koja je dominirala i Korzikom i Sardinijom. Pisa je do 14. st. diktirala trgovinu Sredozemljem, a jedini takmac joj je bila Venecija. Iz tog vremena bogatstva svjedoči veliki romanički kompleks Katedralnog trga. Nakon prve izgubljene pomorske bitke 1284. god., trgovinu je postupno preuzela pobjednica Genova, a luku u Pisi je polako zatrpavalo taloženje mulja, što je dovelo do gubitka pomorske sile. To je iskoristila obližnja Firenca koja se toliko razvila da je prijetila autonomiji grada. Nakon dugogodišnjih sukoba, Firenca je zaposjela Pisu 1406. god. Obitelj Medici ponovno otvara sveučilište posvećeno znanosti, koje je nastalo još u 12. st., i na njemu je studirao mještanin Galileo Galilei. Pisa je ostala u posjedu Firence sve do 1860. god., osim kratkotrajne zajedničke francuske i habsburške vlasti od 1494. do 1509. god. God. 1860., postaje dijelom Talijanskog kraljevstva. Preživjela je strašno savezničko bombardiranje 1944. god.
U 20. st., ušće rijeke Arno je potpuno pomjereno, a luka je nestala. Lokalno sveučilište je ostalo snažnim sveučilišnim centrom, a Pisa sve više turističkim središtem.

Crkva sv. Agate IS
