Cathedral of Urbino, Minor basilica and cathedral in Urbino, Italy.
The Cathedral of Urbino features a Latin cross layout with a central nave, two side aisles, and a coffered dome at the transept intersection.
Founded in 1021, the cathedral underwent reconstruction after an earthquake in 1789, leading to its completion in 1801 under architect Giuseppe Valadier's direction.
The cathedral contains paintings by Federico Barocci, including Saint Sebastian and Last Supper, along with Carlo Maratta's Assumption of the Virgin from 1707.
The cathedral serves as the seat of the Archbishop of Urbino-Urbania-Sant'Angelo in Vado and maintains regular religious services for the community.
The west front displays five statues representing theological virtues Faith, Hope, Charity, plus Saints Augustine and John Chrysostom, carved from Furlo stone.
