The Romanesque Basilica of Aquileia or Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta of Aquileia is the former patriarchal basilica of the Patriarchate of Aquileia and the main church of the Italian city of Aquileia. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The building was erected in the 11th century. The mosaic on the church floor is particularly worth seeing.
