Sant'Eufemia Church, Verona, Italy

The church of Sant'Eufemia is an ancient church in Verona. A church at the site was likely present by the 11th or 12th centuries, although the main layout we see today was completed only in the 14th century. In the interior, altarpieces were completed by Brusasorci and Giovanni Domenico Cignaroli. In the 14th century Spolverini chapel, there is a canvas and frescos by Giovanni Francesco Caroto.

You have to pay ticket to get inside, you might accept offer from Pellegrini and not charge the entrance. Shame!

One of the Most Incredible Catholic churches I ever visited, and I visit lot of churches, through my journeys along the years. It is truly Good mood out and inside, even if you're not a Catholic, you will feel the presence of God inside. The beauty of the Arts.. More than an Art museum, and it's a Local Church.. All and All, the Believers are nice and Welcoming, the Priests are inviting and curious where you're coming from. Highly recommend

Fantastic church in Verona. I loved exploring and enjoyed th silence and quiet of the place. I also liked the attention to the sanitisation of the space.

Church of St Donatus

The Church of St Donatus name refers to Donatus of Zadar, who began construction on this church in the 9th century and ended it on the northeastern part of the Roman forum. It is the largest Pre-Romanesque building in Croatia.

The beginning of the building of the church was placed to the second half of the 8th century, and it is supposed to have been completed in the 9th century. The Zadar bishop and diplomat Donat (8th and 9th centuries) is credited with the building of the church. He led the representations of the Dalmatian cities to Constantinople and Charles the Great, which is why this church bears slight resemblance to Charlemagne's court chapels, especially the one in Aachen, and also to the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna. It belongs to the Pre-Romanesque architectural period.

The circular church, formerly domed, is 27 m high and is characterised by simplicity and technical primitivism.
