Chieti Cathedral, Romanesque cathedral in Chieti, Italy

The cathedral features solid stone walls, a prominent bell tower, semicircular arches, and vaulted ceilings that define its Romanesque design pattern.

Built in 1069, the cathedral underwent substantial reconstruction in the 13th century and required restoration after damages sustained during World War II.

The cathedral holds regular religious services, exhibits artistic collections, and functions as the primary seat of the Archdiocese of Chieti-Vasto.

Located on a hilltop in central Chieti, the cathedral remains open for visitors daily and provides guided tours of its architectural elements.

The cathedral houses religious objects connected to Saint Justin of Chieti, the local patron saint who established Christianity in the region.
