Duomo of San Miniato, Gothic cathedral in San Miniato, Italy.

The Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta and San Genesio features a stone facade with alternating patterns of pink, green, and white decorative elements.

The cathedral gained its current structure during Frederick II's reign, who incorporated 32 ceramic basins on the facade representing astronomical constellations.

The cathedral houses commemorative plaques honoring 55 citizens who lost their lives during a tragic artillery incident in World War II.

The cathedral stands in the oldest section of San Miniato, offering visitors access to both the main sanctuary and an underground crypt.

The Tower of Matilde, initially part of defensive walls, was transformed into the cathedral's bell tower near the Palace of Imperial Vicars.
