The cathedral



The cathedral was built in 1332 and is dedicated to S.Maria Assunta. Its present aspect is due to the architects Angelo Italia and Giuseppe Diamante (1669). The façade, designed by Emanuele Cardona, goes back to 1785. The portal of the east side is attributed to Berrettaro (1499). Inside it’s visible the use of red ancient marble. It keeps the fresco of "La Pentecoste" of the XV century discovered during the restorations of 1958.
