It was once a Palatine Chapel and later became a place of worship. The mosaic panels in the nave tell biblical stories from both the Old and New Testaments. Marvel at the craftsmanship and vibrant colors that bring these stories to life. See the Procession of the Magi, a breathtaking portrayal of the three wise men traveling to meet the infant Jesus.
