Porec (Crotia) is the Roman city of Parentium. The cathedral was built by Bishop Euphrasius 553 over the site of an older basilica that dated back to the 4th century.
The most striking feature of the basilica are its mosaics, dating from the 6th century, which are considered amongst the finest examples of Byzantine art. The mosaics over the apse represent Christ with the Apostles,. Photo Wikipedia
