    What To Expect

    Basilica of San Clemente

    A three-tiered complex of buildings: a basilica built in the Middle Ages on top of the ruins of a 4th-century church that, in turn, had been converted out of the home of a Roman nobleman. The basilica has a rich history, from the Roman Republic era to a Mithraeum to a church to the present-day minor basilica.
