San Pietro Apostolo, Cathedral in Tempio Pausania, Italy
San Pietro Apostolo Cathedral stands in granite stone at the center of the historic district, featuring a single nave with four chapels on each side.
The medieval church underwent multiple transformations, including Gothic-Catalan reconstruction in 1519, until its consecration as a cathedral by Bishop Capece in 1839.
The cathedral contains a wooden organ built by Paul Ciresa in 1980 and displays Genoese Baroque marble decorations throughout its interior spaces.
The cathedral entrance is accessible via a wide granite staircase from Via Battisti, leading visitors to the San Pietro square and main door.
The apse features an olive wood choir from 1737-1741, crowned by a circular fresco depicting Saint Peter holding the keys to Heaven.
