Cathedral in Sciacca, Minor basilica in Sciacca, Italy.
The Cathedral features a tripartite facade with paired pilasters, three access gates, and a large stained glass window decorated with intricate volutes.
The cathedral, established in 1108 by Giulietta la Normanna, daughter of Count Ruggero, underwent reconstruction after its partial collapse in December 1656.
The interior walls display sculptures created by Giandomenico and Antonino Gagini in 1541, representing Santa Maria Maddalena and the apostles Pietro and Paolo.
Located in Piazza Don Minzoni, the cathedral remains open for visitors and religious services, with a short flight of steps leading to an enclosed churchyard.
The ceiling of the central nave contains frescos from 1829 by Tommaso Rossi, depicting the Throne of God and the celestial court.
