San Giovanni al Sepolcro, Romanesque church in Brindisi, Italy.

The circular stone church features eight marble columns supporting the roof and displays medieval frescoes on its interior walls.

Built in the 11th century, the church became a significant stop for Crusaders traveling between Europe and the Holy Land through Brindisi's port.

The main portal contains detailed stone carvings depicting mythological creatures and biblical scenes, representing the Puglian Romanesque style.

Located at Via San Giovanni al Sepolcro 5 in Brindisi, the church opens for guided tours and contains a lower crypt level.

Archaeological excavations inside the church revealed Roman remains, including floor sections from an ancient domus residence.
