Duomo di Pordenone, Co-cathedral in Pordenone, Italy.
The Duomo di Pordenone is a single-nave church with side chapels featuring a tower that rises 79.47 meters (261 feet) above the ground with terracotta decorative details along its walls. The building combines Romanesque and Gothic elements in its overall design.
Construction started in the mid-13th century in Romanesque-Gothic style and was completed in 1347, replacing an earlier sanctuary on the same location. This period of building reflected the growing importance of the city in medieval times.
The cathedral displays religious artworks throughout its side chapels, including paintings by Giovanni Battista Bettini and Pomponio Amalteo that visitors encounter as they walk through the interior. These pieces reflect the artistic taste of different centuries.
The cathedral is easily reached through the city center and welcomes visitors to explore both its interior spaces and the impressive tower structure. Plan your visit outside worship times to appreciate the artworks and architecture without interruption.
The organ was built by Pietro Nachini in 1749 and originally came from a church that was later demolished to make way for development. Over the centuries it has been restored multiple times while maintaining its original character and sound.
