A little history
Until 402 Ravenna was an unremarkable province, until Emperor Flavius Honorius Augustus decided to move here his capital from Milan . The choice fell precisely on this city is not accidental: the emperor believed that Ravenna was sufficiently well fortified from the invasions of barbarians and invaders . It is worth saying that he was mistaken: already in 476 the city was captured by the Ostgoths . However, on Ravenna's life had little effect - she was still one of the brightest and most beautiful cities on the Adriatic Poble , considerable merit in what should be attributed to the account of Theodoric the Great .

The mausoleum of Theodoric 520) - a severe tomb of the King of the Ostrogoths, which is located at the far end of the city, behind the railway tracks.

Speaking about the sights of Ravenna, first of all come to mind its fantastic mosaics in the Byzantine style. The most notable are the palace of Theodoric and the mausoleum of Galla Placidia. In the last place, after standing an impressive line, it is not allowed to be more than 5 minutes. We have to go out, stand and again rush headlong to enjoy the perfect gold and sapphire flowers of the mosaic ceilings and walls (address: Via Fiandrini Benedetto, entrance about 4 euros).
Finally, it is necessary to visit the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit of the 18th century (on the ancient foundation Ursian basilica of the beginning of the 5th century), the Venetian fortress of Brancaleon of the 15th century, and the Franciscan church of San Francesco, where the poet Dante died in Ravenna.
