Cattedrale di San Giovanni Battista

The Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist is the main church of Brindisi, located in the heart of the old town on Piazza Duomo. The cathedral was built in the 12th century and dedicated to Saint John the Baptist. Over the centuries, it has been rebuilt several times, especially after the earthquake of 1743, which gave it a blend of Romanesque and Baroque architectural styles. The interior is elegant, adorned with marble altars, frescoes, and mosaics. Today, it serves not only as a center of religious life but also as one of Brindisi’s most important historical landmarks, reflecting the city’s rich culture and history.
