Basilica of San Marino

Basilica del Santo, Del Santo Pieve, Basilica di San Marino,
San marino, San Marino
The Basilica of San Marino is the hallmark of the Republic of San Marino. The church is dedicated to the patron saint of the city and the state, Saint Marin. This beautiful building was built by the architect Antonio Serra in 1838 and is made in the neo-classical style, with a portico of eight Corinthian columns. On the pediment, above the columns, is written "DIVO MARINO PATRONO ET LIBERTATIS AUCTORI SEN. P.Q." (from Latin - "Saint Marin, the patron who brought freedom. The Senate and the people").
In 2008, together with the historical center of San Marino, it was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
The basilica is featured on the San Marino dime.

A beautiful, bright basilica attracts the attention of everyone who happens to be near Piazzale Plebis Domus. They say that in the 19th century, many residents of San Marino were not happy that the old temple was destroyed in order to build a new one, although it was no longer subject to restoration. But the new neoclassical appearance of the basilica is very spectacular. The building is decorated with numerous bas-reliefs, and above the entrance you can see the coat of arms of the republic. The interior of the temple is no less magnificent - there are paintings and sculptures by Italian masters.
