Terracina Cathedral, Co-cathedral in Terracina, Italy

The cathedral features three naves separated by Roman columns, with the central nave containing an elevated quadrangular choir space and side apses.

Originally constructed between the 5th and 6th centuries, the cathedral incorporated materials from an ancient Roman temple that previously occupied the forum site.

The cathedral houses a medieval pulpit from the 13th century and preserves Cosmatesque pavement designs dating from the 12th to 13th centuries.

The main entrance requires climbing a flight of steps and leads to a portico supported by six Classical columns arranged around a central triumphal arch.

The cathedral served as the location for the Papal conclave of 1088, which resulted in the selection of Pope Urban II.
