| Description |
This is the main square in Amalfi the Piazza del Duomo. First view of the Cathedral of Amalfi (we would later have a look around inside the cathedral). Originally built in the 9th century. Repeatedly remodelled. Enlarged in the 10th century, rebuilt in Arabic-Norman forms in the 13th century, remodelled in the 16th and 17th centuries. Renovated between 1701 and 1731. Facade damaged in 1861. The bell tower is separate from the facade of the cathedral, and is not in line with the facade. First begun in 1180 and finished a century later. Arabic style. The majority is covered in yellow and green is unusual. The steps up to the cathedral. A long flight of 62 steps must be climbed to get to the Cathedral but the evocative Gothic atrium, the reflection of light on the lively facade with its ornamental motives of Byzantine, Arab. Norman derivation made it well worth the effort. On the left is the Sacrum Seminarium (Latin for A sacred seminary). |
