Montalto Cathedral, Minor basilica and co-cathedral in Montalto delle Marche, Italy
The Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta features a Neoclassical portico facade, an octagonal bell tower, and twelve lateral chapels with decorative frescoes.
Pope Sixtus V established the Diocese of Montalto in 1586, initiating the construction of the cathedral's crypt where he received religious training.
The cathedral maintains a collection of religious art, including frescoes by Luigi Fontana and connections to the Madonna di Montalto painting.
Located in Piazza Sisto V, the cathedral stands near the episcopal palace, which contains a diocesan museum displaying religious artifacts.
The cathedral's entrance area features a small plaza with two semicircular fountain pools and a memorial column honoring fallen soldiers.
