Cathedral preserving the marks of its multiple influences in Alghero
Built over a long period of time, the cathedral retains the marks of its multiple influences. The campanile and the apses display a Gothic-Catalan style. The octagonal dome and the pillars with Doric columns come from the Renaissance. The mausoleum is of neoclassical inspiration. Although the city was chosen as an episcopal see as early as 1503, the construction of the cathedral did not begin until 1567. The work dragged on, and it was not consecrated until 1730.

Située plein centre de la ville d’Alghero cette cathédrale extérieurement est imposante et robuste, avec une architecture très simple. Elle fait penser à un temple avec ces colonnes.
L’intérieur parait plus riche avec les trois nefs, un magnifique autel en pierres colorées ainsi qu’une petite chapelle avec des statues. Un plafond sobre avec seulement deux fresques.
La visite est intéressante et gratuite…
