Portal of the Cathedral of Cagliari - Sardinia, Italy.


Portal of the Cathedral of Cagliari - Sardinia, Italy. The Cathedral of Cagliari (Duomo) dedicated to St. Mary is situated in Piazza Palazzo in the historical district of Castello. The building was constructed by the Pisans in the XIII Century in the place where the church of St. Cecily once existed. Over the centuries, the church has suffered a lot of transformations that are especially visible on its façade, originally constructed in Roman-Pisan style and modified in 1702 when baroque elements were added. Later, in 1933, while looking for the original medieval façade, the baroque decorations were substituted by neo-Roman ones that are still present today.
