This is the most prestigious arian church, erected by the ostrogoth king Theoderic next to his palace. It is called 'Nuovo' (New) to distinguish it from Sant'Apollinare in Classe, where the martyr relics were before being moved here. Inside you can find the biggest monumental work on the New Testament (V-VI century), very well-preserved.
