Ravenna Tombale is an itinerary to discover the darkest and most eerie side of the city. Behind the beauty of the mosaics, the charm of the monuments and the silence of the ancient stones, Ravenna actually harbors a history of crimes, tombs, presences, hidden symbols and funerary memories.
Strolling through the historic old town, we will delve into a city where death, the sacred and mystery have been intertwined for centuries. From the Roman era to the Middle Ages of the Da Polenta family, from the Renaissance of Julius II to the Risorgimento period, stories of saints and assassins, conspiracies, murders, superstitions and tales linked to the city's most famous sites will come to light.
We will discover how behind every monument there may be a dark episode, a ghost, a tomb or a symbol to be deciphered. Because Ravenna, though beautiful and luminous, retains a sepulchral soul, suspended between memory, spirituality and unease.
An evocative and engaging route, ideal for those who want to discover Ravenna from an unusual perspective: more secretive, more somber, more fascinating.
