Cassano allo Ionio cathedral

The cathedral features a baroque facade with two tiers decorated in stone and stucco, located in Piazza Sant'Eusebio of Cassano allo Ionio.

The cathedral's crypt dates back to Norman times, containing a wooden crucifix from the 15th century and 16th-century frescoes of Santa Lucia and San Biagio.

The high altar displays precious polychrome marbles and includes a silver lid with a pelican symbol, complemented by 18th-century marble decorations by Agostino Fortunato.
