Basilica Di Sant'Elia
The Basilica di Sant'Elia is a basilica in Castel Sant'Elia, northern Latium, central Italy. History The church originates from a monastery founded here in 520 by Anastasius, a notary in the Roman court. In the early 11th century the abbot Elia built here a basilica which was mentioned, among the others, by Pope Gregory VII in 1176 and by Pope Innocent III, Innocent III in 1211. In 1607 a fallen tuff rock damaged the left side wall, and the church was subsequently restored at the expenses of the Farnese family, who owned the basilica from 1540 to 1649. In 1740 a period of decline began, due to the construction of a parish church in the town, which ended in the 19th century when Pius IX had architect Virginio Vespignani restore the edifice. Other restorations date to 1960 (frescoes and ceiling), 1997 (mosaic pavement) and 2003 (apse and crypt pavement). Description The basilica of Sant'Elia is a Romanesque architecture, Romanesque structure with a nave and two aisles, and a trans ...
