Frascati Cathedral, Minor basilica and cathedral in Frascati, Italy
The Cathedral of San Pietro features a baroque facade with two bell towers and follows a Greek cross floor plan design.
Construction of the cathedral started in 1636, and Girolamo Fontana completed the new facade just in time for the Holy Year of 1700.
The cathedral contains several religious artworks, including an 11th-century wooden crucifix from Tusculum and a Madonna attributed to Domenichino.
The cathedral opens its doors for regular religious services, ceremonies, and visits, allowing visitors to explore its architectural elements and religious artifacts.
A white marble funerary monument inside houses the heart of Charles Edward Stuart, while his body rests in Saint Peter's Basilica in Rome.
