La Chiesa di Sant’Eufemia<\/strong> si trova in pieno centro storico a Spoleto, all’interno del cortile del palazzo arcivescovile. Eretta in pieno stile romanico, conserva ancora un’atmosfera di sobriet\u00e0 e di intenso raccoglimento. L’area absidale dell’edificio, ornata da archetti pensili e lesene, guarda direttamente la scalinata che porta a piazza Duomo e per raggiungere l’ingresso della chiesa \u00e8 dunque necessario attraversare il cortile del palazzo.<\/p>\n

Una particolarit\u00e0: se la Chiesa di Sant’Eufemia vi sembra familiare potreste averla vista in televisione, poich\u00e9 l’edificio \u00e8 stato come location della famosa serie televisiva Don Matteo<\/em> in diverse stagioni.<\/p>\n

Particolari storici e visita della Chiesa<\/h2>\n

L’interessante edificio risale al XII secolo<\/strong> e nasconde, al di l\u00e0 di una semplice e al tempo stesso austera facciata, decorata da una sola bifora, un interno a tre navate divise da colonne e pilastri polistili illuminate da monofore di stile romanico lombardo. Il prospetto a due spioventi sopraelevati al centro \u00e8 tipico della prima architettura romanica spoletina con portali a rincassi concentrici e archetti rampanti. Il particolare forse di maggior interesse artistico \u00e8 per\u00f2 rappresentato dalla zona dei matronei a causa della grande rarit\u00e0 di questa tipologia costruttiva nel territorio umbro.<\/p>\n

La Basilica di S. Eufemia sorge all\u2019interno del Palazzo Arcivescovile, la cui area era occupata dalla residenza dei Duchi Longobardi, come ricordano i documenti dei secoli VIII e IX. La prima notizia del monastero di San Eufemia e dell’annessa chiesa risale al secolo X, quando la badessa del Monastero di San Eufemia, chiese al monaco benedettino Giovanni Cassinese di scrivere la vita di San Giovanni Arcivescovo di Spoleto.<\/p>\n

L’interno,<\/strong> pur nella esiguit\u00e0 degli spazi, colpisce per la giustezza di ritmi e di proporzioni: le colonne e i pilastri, spesso ottenuti con elementi di spoglio provenienti da edifici classici ed alto medioevali, scandiscono le tre navate; la presenza di matronei, \u00e8 stata posta in relazione con la tradizione secondo cui Sant’Eufemia occup\u00f2 l’area dell’antica residenza regia e ducale dove, sul tipo della cappella palatina di Aquisgrana, esistevano i matronei.<\/p>\n

It is necessary to attraverse the courtyard of the archbishop’s palace in order to visit the\u00a0church of St. Eufemia<\/strong>, whose apsis area, which is decorated with small hanging arches and pilaster strips, looks out on the stairway which leads to the Cathedral.<\/p>\n

This interesting Romanic building of the 12th century hides under a simple and at the same time austere facade dating back to the 12th century and decorated with only a single mullioned window an interior with three naves divided by columms and pilasters of various styles, and illuminated by windows with one light of the Romanic lombard style.
\nThe roof with two slopes raised up higher at the center is typical of the first Spoletian Romanic architecture, with concentric wrapped-up portals and small rampant arches.
\nThe detail which is perhaps of major artistic interest is the women’s gallery because this architectural tipology is to be found only very rarely in the region of Umbria.<\/p>\n
