Cathedral of Ivrea, Romanesque cathedral in Ivrea, Italy

The Cathedral of Ivrea features two bell towers and multiple columns, with a neoclassical facade added during the nineteenth century modernization.

Originally constructed in the fourth century on a Roman temple site, the cathedral underwent reconstruction around 1000 AD under Bishop Warmondus direction.

The cathedral houses important artworks including the fifteenth-century fresco 'A Miracle of the Blessed Pierre de Luxembourg' and altarpieces by Defendente Ferrari.

Located along Via San Savino, the cathedral maintains regular visiting hours and functions as the central religious building of the Diocese of Ivrea.

The frescoed crypt contains an ancient Roman sarcophagus that holds the relics of Saint Bessus, a patron saint of the city.
