One of the oldest monuments in Ravenna, the Basilica di San Giovanni is a gorgeous building that holds a slice of history within it. San Giovanni Evangelista was commissioned by the empress Galla Placidia in fulfillment of a vow she made during a storm in 424 while sailing from Constantinople to Ravenna. Marble columns and arched porches give this Basilica a surreal beauty that is now five feet above its original level because of all the restorations that were done to prevent it from drowning in the rising waters. Although some precious mosaics were lost in renovation, the basilica is still a sight to behold.
