The whole complex was only fully uncovered in the 1930s. The emergency church, which was then built to protect the valuable mosaics, did its job well into the 1970s. But the dignity of this shrine and the growing number of visitors called more and more to build a new church on this site.

This is where the miraculous multiplication of fish and bread took place... a beautiful mosaic makes this place wonderful, well cared for under the guidance of Benedictine monks.
