The Basilica di San Marino (Marino translates from Latin to "man of the sea")[1] is a Catholic church located in the Republic of San Marino. While the country has a distinct domination of historic religious buildings of Christian faith, the basilica is the main church of the City of San Marino. It is situated on Piazza Domus Plebis in the northeastern edge of the city, adjacent to the Church of St. Peter. It is dedicated to Saint Marinus, the founder and patron of the Republic.

The church is located on the top hill of San Marino. The beautiful corinthian columns, friezes, cornices and pediment show that central church has expressively neoclassical architectural style. The church is visited by thousands of tourist each week. The Basilica of San Marino is a symbol of grandeur in the republic of San Marino. The interior of the church is even more fascinating than the exterior.
