Cathedral of Santa Maria and San Vitale, Gothic Revival cathedral in Montecchio Maggiore, Italy.

The cathedral features a main nave with multiple side niches containing altars, topped by a 72-meter bell tower with ten bells.

Construction began on September 27, 1874, under architect Eugenio Volebele, but was completed by engineer Giovanni Zambler in 1892.

The cathedral houses a collection of religious artworks, including an 18th-century altarpiece and frescoes painted by Carlo Costantino Tagliabue in 1909.

The cathedral opens Monday through Friday from 8:00 to 18:00 and weekends from 8:00 to 19:30, with parking available on Via Roma.

Local quarry stones were selected for construction, connecting the cathedral's architecture with the surrounding landscape of Montecchio Maggiore.
