The Basilica di San Nicola, located in Bari, Italy, is a significant religious site and a masterpiece of Romanesque architecture. Constructed between 1087 and 1197, the basilica was built to house the relics of Saint Nicholas, which were brought from Myra (modern-day Turkey) by a group of sailors. The church features a stunning facade with three portals and a rose window, while its interior is adorned with intricate carvings, mosaics, and religious artworks.
