This image shows Duomo di Mantova as seen from Piazza Sordello, Mantua (Mantova), Lombardy, Italy. Mantua Cathedral (Cattedrale di San Pietro apostolo; Duomo di Mantova) in Mantua, Lombardy, northern Italy, is a Roman Catholic cathedral dedicated to Saint Peter. It is the seat of the Bishop of Mantua. An initial structure probably existed on the site in the Early Christian era, which was followed by a building destroyed by a fire in 894. The current church was rebuilt in 1395–1401 with the addition of side chapels and a magnificent Gothic west front, which can still be seen in a sketch by Domenico Morone (preserved in the Palazzo Ducale of Mantua). The belltower has seven bells tuned in the scale of Bb. Source: Wikipedia.
