Basilica di Sant’Apollinare in Classe (Cathedral of St. Apollinare in Classe), Ravenna, Emilia-Romagna, Italy

The Cathedral dates back to the Byzantine Era (it was consecrated in 549 AC), when the Emperors of the Eastern Roman Empire tried to reconquer the Western one, after the fall of the Rome’s Empire, at that time divided into barbaric kingdoms.

Byzantines occupied part of Italy and its capital, at that time Ravenna (by that time Rome was a less important city): They ruled some Italian lands from 584 until 751 AC. The Italic lands under Byzantines’ rule are known as “Exharchate of Ravenna”.

The Cathedral owes its name (Classe = Fleet), because the area was at that time by the sea and the location of one of the main naval bases of the Roman Empire.

The Cathedral of St. Apollinare is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as other seven sites in Ravenna.
