Summary
edit| Description |
English: The Basilica of Constantine or Aula Palatina is part of a Roman palace complex that was built by the emperor Constantine (306–337 AD) around 310 AD.
The Basilica, Constantine's throne room, is the largest surviving single-room structure from Roman times. The Romans wanted the architecture to express the magnificence and might of the emperor. Unbelievable size: 26.05 m (85.5 ft) wide, 33 m (108 ft) high, and 67 m (220 ft) long. This depth is magnified by an optical illusion - both the windows of the apse as well as the niches underneath become progressively smaller towards the middle, thus enhancing the impression of length. |
