Description
English: Churche Saint Justina of Padua in Italy. The sanctuary of Prosdocimus. One of the oldest buildings in Veneto: dated from the 6th century. It is the only preserved vestige of the opilionea basilica. Originally it was a chapel dedicated to the preservation of relics. The space is conceived on the plane of the Greek cross and is characterized by a very elegant awning composed of dome all painted in grotesque in the sixteenth century to replace the original mosaic decoration. It was the burial place of the first bishops of Padua, including the first, St Prosdocime of Padua, whose body rests in the altar of 1564. It consists of a Roman sarcophagus placed on the right (in relation to the " apse). In front of the apse a pergola, in Greek marble, astonishing work of the sixth century practically intact preserved in the initial position of Iconostase.

Italiano: Basilica di Santa Giustina Padova italia. Il Sacello di San Prosdocimo. Edificio (in alzato) tra i più antichi del Veneto: databile al VI secolo, è unico resto conservatosi della basilica opilionea. In origine era cappella dedicata alla conservazione delle reliquie. Lo spazio, elevato in pianta a croce greca, è caratterizzato da un'elegantissima copertura composta da cupola centrale, volte a botte tutto dipinto a grottesche nel Cinquecento in sostituzione della decorazione musiva presente in origine. Fu luogo di sepoltura dei primi vescovi di Padova tra cui il primo, san Prosdocimo il cui corpo riposa all'interno dell'altare del 1564 ricavato da un sarcofago d'età romana e posto sulla destra (rispetto all'abside). Gioiello artistico presente nella cappella è la pergula, piccola iconostasi in marmo greco, straordinario pezzo del VI secolo conservatosi praticamente intonso nella primitiva posizione.
