Aquilea fue un importante puerto romano que además tuvo un importante papel en la cristianización del centro de Europa. La basílica de Basilea conserva uno de los mayores mosaicos del mundo, si no el mayor, habiendo también mosaicos en el suelo de la catedral, la cual se construyó sobre 2 basílicas paleocristianas.
Como monumentos romanos se conservan las columnas del foro y la vía Sacra. También tenemos el museo arqueológico.
Para llegar allí podemos seguir las siguientes instrucciones:
If you are travelling from Venice and the Veneto, or - in the opposite direction - from Trieste, it is possible to take the train to within a few miles of Aquileia. The nearest station is at Cervignano, on the railway line between Venice (90 minutes away) and Trieste (30 minutes).
Two companies run bus services connecting Cervignano and Aquileia (they continue to Grado). SAF buses (blue coaches) start right by the station and are timed to coincide with trains, but they'll leave very promptly so travellers need to move fast. Inside the station building there is a news-stand where you can buy bus tickets; by the time you've done this and nipped back outside the bus is probably waiting to leave. Services are irregular but there is usually more than one per hour - you can consult timetables in advance online (see links panel). Aquileia is about 10 minutes away: the main bus stop is easy to spot since it's after you've passed the main sights; just after you pass the Museo Archeologico on the right. There is another, earlier stop which might be handier if you want to visit the Monastero area first. If in doubt, ask the bus driver to advise you. If you haven't stocked up with tickets for your return trip, or if you are continuing by bus to Grado, you can buy tickets at a tobaccanists' on the main road (identified by the 'T' outside) or at the Bar degli Scavi, near the basilica. The tourist information office should have a timetable; it's a good idea to plan your day's timings in advance. A few services on the same route are also run by APT (see links panel); integrated bus tickets are valid on either service.
En definitiva, en tren hasta Cervignano y desde allí en bus:
