The cathedral - Corato

The cathedral dates back to 1139, but nowadays it is much more different than its original appearance because of many interventions that were necessary to rebuilt some of parts of the church after the earthquake of 1627 had destroyed them. Few medieval marks are still clear on the gate of the church: the plant motiv decorates the gate and a refined high relief showing Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary an a Saint  embellishes the top of the gate.
