Foligno Cathedral, Romanesque cathedral in Foligno, Italy

The cathedral features two distinct facades, with the main one facing Piazza Grande and the secondary one adorned with three rose windows on Piazza della Repubblica.

The original structure was built between 1133 and 1201, with Bishop Marco initiating construction and Cardinal Giulio di San Marcello consecrating it in 1149.

The interior contains the Chapel of the Sacrament by Antonio da Sangallo the Younger, displaying frescoes narrating San Feliciano's life and a silver statue.

The cathedral remains closed for repairs following damages sustained during the 2016 earthquake, requiring visitors to view only its exterior architecture.

The secondary facade displays two stone griffins from the 13th century commemorating Foligno's victory over Perugia, along with lions supporting columns.
