Santa Maria Maggiore, Gothic cathedral in Teggiano, Italy

The cathedral features four funeral shrines on its exterior facade, along with two columns with capitals dating back to Roman times.

Built in the second half of the 13th century under Charles of Anjou, the cathedral underwent major modifications after the 1857 earthquake and its elevation to diocese in 1850.

The cathedral houses the tomb of Enrico Sanseverino, Grand Constable of the Kingdom of Naples, created by Gothic artist Tino di Camaino from Siena.

The main entrance stands opposite to the original one, which was located on a portico along the present Via Roma street.

The pulpit, dated 1271 by sculptor Melchiorre da Montalbano, displays symbols of the Evangelists and figures of Adam and Eve.
