Atri Cathedral, Romanesque co-cathedral basilica in Atri, Italy
Atri Cathedral is a co-cathedral basilica built in Romanesque and Gothic styles from white Istrian stone in the town of Atri. The front facade displays a large rose window and a Gothic portal created by Master Rainaldo, with a niche showing Madonna and Child.
The cathedral was founded in 1260 and served as the religious center for the Atri diocese. Over time it underwent structural changes and was eventually merged with the Teramo diocese in 1986.
The southern wall displays three medieval portals decorated with lion sculptures and Angevin symbols, reflecting the craftsmanship of Raimondo di Poggio. These ornaments show the artistic traditions that local artisans passed down through generations.
The cathedral is open to visitors during regular hours, and you can freely explore the interior. If you want to learn more about the building's history and design, guides are available to show you around and explain the architectural details.
The facade blends elements from different time periods, as various master craftsmen worked on the portals between the 13th and 14th centuries. This layering of artistic styles reveals how long the construction and decoration process took to complete.
