dbo:abstract
  • The Mausoleum of Honorius was a late antique circular mausoleum and the burial place of the Roman emperor Honorius and other 5th-century imperial family members. Constructed for the Augustus of the western Roman Empire beside Old St Peter's Basilica in Rome, the Mausoleum of Honorius was the last Roman imperial mausoleum built. It became the Chapel of St Petronilla, dedicated to Saint Petronilla, the purported daughter of Saint Peter. Her relics were translated to the mausoleum in 757 at the behest of Pepin the Short, king of Francia. Its association with the medieval Kingdom of France continued until the Renaissance, and it was known by the Italian: Capella dei Re Franchi, lit. 'Chapel of the French Kings' or Capella de' Franchi, 'Chapel of the French'. The mausoleum was demolished in late November 1519, during the construction of St Peter's Basilica. (en)
  • Il mausoleo onoriano fu un monumento eretto vicino all'antica basilica di San Pietro in Vaticano per ospitare i resti dell'imperatore Onorio e della sua famiglia; successivamente vi furono traslati i resti mortali di santa Petronilla, e assunse il nome di cappella o rotonda di Santa Petronilla o anche, data la particolare devozione dei Re di Francia per questa santa, Cappella dei Re di Francia. Durante il Rinascimento fu erroneamente identificata con un Tempio di Apollo. Il mausoleo fu demolito nel corso del XVI secolo, per fare posto al transetto meridionale della nuova basilica di San Pietro in Vaticano. (it)
