Urbania Cathedral, Co-cathedral in Urbania, Italy.

The cathedral features a neoclassical facade designed by Giuseppe Tacchi in 1870 and stands next to a Romanesque bell tower completed in 1958.

Originally built as a 9th-century Paleochristian church dedicated to Saint Christopher, the structure underwent major reconstruction in the mid-1700s under architect Giuseppe Tosi.

The interior houses notable artworks including a 1320 crucifix by Pietro da Rimini and a 16th-century Pentecost canvas by Giustino Episcopi.

The cathedral maintains regular visiting hours and serves as an active religious center within the Archdiocese of Urbino-Urbania-Sant'Angelo in Vado since 1986.

The chapel of San Cristoforo contains a shoulder bone relic of Saint Christopher, stored in an urn designed by Pollaiolo in 1472.
