Euphrasian Basilica
Poreč’s Euphrasian Basilica is an early Byzantine church complex known for its mosaics. The apse and surrounding episcopal buildings give this Istrian stop more than a single façade to see.
Why go
The strongest reason to go inside is to give the mosaics time. Their detail can be lost in a hurried visit, and the wider complex helps place them within a layered church setting. If you are comparing Istria’s historic towns, this is a focused example of a much earlier period.
What to look for
Mosaics cover the basilica’s apse.
The basilica forms part of a wider episcopal complex.
