The cathedral housed the funeral chapel of the Bonaparte family until the Second Empire, when the chapel was built

Little Napoleon was baptized here on July 21, 1771. The cathedral housed the funeral chapel of the Bonaparte family until the imperial chapel was built under the Second Empire. At first glance, the cathedral is striking for its modest dimensions. The Latin cross plan features a barely defined transept, and the three interior naves seem too short for their proportions in height and width. But the seven side chapels, the imposing dome and, above all, the ochre-colored Baroque façade exude a unique charm.
