Cathedral of Saints Maximus and George
Cathedral of Saints Maximus and George, Baroque cathedral in L'Aquila, Italy.
The Cathedral of Saints Maximus and George features high vaulted ceilings, decorated altars, and architectural elements following baroque design principles.
Built in 1256 and reconstructed by architect Sebastiano Cipriani in 1711, the cathedral underwent multiple transformations due to earthquakes throughout its existence.
The cathedral functions as the central religious institution for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of L'Aquila, hosting major ceremonies and community gatherings.
The cathedral stands on Piazza Duomo in central L'Aquila, though currently access remains restricted due to ongoing restoration work from earthquake damage.
Following the 2009 earthquake, church functions moved first to Santa Maria di Collemaggio, then to San Giuseppe Artigiano while reconstruction continues.
