Casale Monferrato Cathedral

The cathedral features five distinct naves with polychrome columns rising two stories high and displaying extensive brick and stone architectural elements.

The cathedral, dedicated to Saint Evasius, was consecrated in 1107 by Pope Paschal II, replacing a previous religious structure from the ninth century.

The interior contains notable religious artworks, including an eleventh-century crucifix in the apse and frescoes depicting Christ in Glory with angels.

The cathedral museum holds a collection of religious artifacts and remains accessible to visitors interested in examining local ecclesiastical heritage.

A small column within the cathedral bears the sign of Christ, marking the location where Saint Evasius suffered martyrdom according to local tradition.
