The Santa Prassede Basilica
The Santa Prassede Basilica is famous for its Byzantine mosaics, which entirely cover the walls and vault and have been preserved in their original state. This small 9th-century church is dedicated to St Praxedes, an early Christian heroine who hid Christians fleeing persecution and buried those she couldn’t save in a well. The position of the well is now marked by a marble disc on the floor of the nave.

It is the national church of Rome’s Filipino community too. You can see a 4th-century apse mosaic, the oldest Christian mosaic in Rome of Christ sitting on a jewel encrusted throne, wearing a golden toga with a purple trim.
