Basilica of Sant'Eufemia

The basilica features three naves separated by marble columns, with an expansive mosaic floor depicting geometric patterns and symbolic designs throughout the space.

Archbishop Eliah commissioned the construction of this religious structure in the sixth century, building it upon the remains of a fourth-century basilica.

The basilica contains a thirteenth-century hexagonal pulpit adorned with detailed sculptures and Gothic frescoes depicting Christ enthroned in the central apse.

Located in the center of Grado's old town, the basilica maintains regular opening hours for visitors to explore its architectural elements and religious artifacts.

The floor preserves rare sixth-century mosaics that include inscriptions naming the church's benefactors alongside geometric patterns and religious symbols.
