Pozzuoli Cathedral, Minor basilica and cathedral in Pozzuoli, Italy
The cathedral stands at the highest point of Rione Terra district, featuring a rectangular layout measuring 15 by 23.5 meters with Corinthian columns.
The temple was constructed by merchant Lucius Calpurnius to honor Emperor Augustus, later transformed into a Christian church between the 5th and 6th centuries.
The structure combines two architectural styles, incorporating both a classical temple and a late Baroque church with archaeological remains of the Roman Capitolium.
The cathedral reopened in 2014 following extensive restoration work funded by the Campania region with an investment of 10 million euros.
The temple walls were built using white marble blocks without mortar, preserving the original Roman construction techniques within the current religious structure.
