Fermo Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Fermo, Italy
The cathedral presents a Romanesque-Gothic facade constructed with Istrian stone, featuring a rose window created by Giacomo Palmieri in 1348.
After the original church was destroyed in 1176 during Frederick I's campaign, the current structure was rebuilt in 1227 under architect Giorgio da Como.
The cathedral functions as the main seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Fermo and contains Byzantine icons and paleochristian mosaics depicting symbolic elements.
The building stands on Girfalco Hill, with the entrance marked by bronze doors created by sculptor Aldo Sergiacomi displaying intricate plant designs.
The cathedral's crypt from the 13th century contains three naves adorned with colored marbles, statues, relics, and frescoes by Alessandro Ricci.
