Pescara Cathedral, Roman Catholic cathedral in Pescara, Italy.

The cathedral exhibits a rectangular facade with rose windows and features three aisles separated by marble-columned arcades allowing natural light throughout the interior.

Construction of the current building began in 1933 under architect Cesare Bazzani, replacing a medieval church that had fallen into disrepair.

The cathedral contains a notable 1649 painting by Guercino titled Saint Francis Adoring a Crucifix, donated by writer Gabriele D'Annunzio.

The cathedral remains open to visitors daily from 7:00 to 12:30 and 16:30 to 19:30, serving as the seat of the Archbishop of Pescara-Penne.

The church organ ranks among the finest instruments in the Abruzzo region, characterized by its exceptional tonal qualities and acoustic performance.
