The Patriarchal Basilica of Aquileia



Aquileia in Italy was once the fourth most important city of the Romans. The Patriarchal basilica was founded in 313, and it's amazing mosaic floor dates from that time. Probably the oldest church I've been to yet.












There are also some interesting ruins nearby including this Roman river port
