Festival Venue

Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri

The Basilica di Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri was built within the remains of the Diocletian Baths, a massive public bathing complex constructed by Emperor Diocletian in the 3rd-century AD. In the 16th-century, Pope Pius IV commissioned the renowned architect Michelangelo to convert the baths into a Christian place of worship. Michelangelo’s innovative design transformed the structure into a breathtaking basilica that blends ancient Roman architecture with Renaissance elements.
