The mosaics of Via D’Azeglio are a treasure passed down to the city as a reminder of the fortunes and grandeur of what was once Ravenna. Sometime between 1993 and 1994 the Superintendency of Archaeological Heritage for Emilia Romagna brought to light a complex of buildings dating from the era of the Roman republic to the Byzantine period. There is a beautiful small palace of which fourteen rooms and three courtyards have been uncovered. All the rooms were paved with marble tarsia or covered with mosaics having a refined geometry and inserts of figures in polychrome tesserae.
