San Pietro Cathedral, Modica, Baroque cathedral in Modica, Italy
The cathedral features a monumental staircase with statues of twelve apostles and a facade adorned with four statues of religious figures.
The first church structure appeared in 1301, and following multiple reconstructions, it gained cathedral status under Charles III of Spain's reign.
The interior contains frescoes depicting Old and New Testament scenes, painted between 1760 and 1780 across the three-nave structure.
The cathedral welcomes visitors daily from 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM and 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM, with modified hours on Sundays.
A central Murano glass chandelier hangs above the main altar, while a 1924 organ contains 3200 reeds and 32 registers.
