Quadrarco di Braccioforte
Adjacent to Dante Alighieri’s Tomb in Ravenna, Italy, lies the Quadrarco di Braccioforte, an ancient oratory nestled within the tranquil Zone of Silence. This serene garden area is historically significant, featuring two 5th-century sarcophagi once utilized by prominent Ravenna families, the Pignata and the Traversari.
The name “Braccioforte” originates from a legend where two devotees invoked the “strong arm” of Christ, whose image was displayed in this location, to solemnize their oath. The Quadrarco serves as a peaceful retreat for visitors exploring Dante’s Tomb and the surrounding historical sites.
