Alghero Cathedral, Catholic co-cathedral in Alghero, Italy
The Cathedral of St. Mary rises with its neoclassical facade and houses five chapels arranged around an ambulatory within the presbytery section.
The construction of the cathedral began in 1567, following the designation of Alghero as a diocesan seat in 1503, and reached completion in 1730.
The main altar features a marble sculpture of Mary the Immaculate surrounded by angels, created by Giuseppe Massetti in 1727.
The cathedral opens its doors to visitors throughout the year, with guided tours available to explore the architectural features and religious artifacts.
The cathedral serves as the final resting place for the Duke of Montferrat and Count of Asti, commemorated by a marble mausoleum from the 19th century.
