Early Christian basilica - Euphrasian Basilica

data access 28495

The Euphrasian Basilica (Croatian: Eufrazijeva basilica) or Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption is a basilica located in Poreč, Croatia. The episcopal complex, include a sacristy outside the basilica, a baptistery, and the bell tower of the nearby archbishop's palace. The Euphrasian Basilica mostly retained its original shape, but accidents, fires and earthquakes changed a few details. Since it is the third church built on the same site, the large floor mosaics of previous buildings, such as the basilica from the 4th century.
