Foggia Cathedral, Romanesque minor basilica and cathedral in Foggia, Italy
The cathedral features rounded stone arches, robust walls, and a west front that exemplifies the characteristics of twelfth-century Romanesque architecture in southern Italy.
Built in 1172, the cathedral experienced major transformations after the 1731 earthquake, which led to substantial modifications of its original structure and design.
The Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta serves as the main seat of the Archdiocese of Foggia-Bovino, holding regular masses and religious ceremonies for the community.
Located in the center of Foggia, the cathedral opens daily from morning until evening, with guided visits available through the diocesan office by appointment.
The cathedral houses an ancient icon known as Madonna dei Sette Veli, which holds special significance in the religious traditions of the region.
