Altamura Cathedral Altamura, Italy

This interesting Romanesque-Gothic cathedral has the most intricately carved portal in Puglia, with fascinating miniature sculptures of the 14th and 15th centuries.

Exterior view of main facade from the Piazza Duomo to the northeast (ecclesiastical southwest), 14th-15th century. With its flanking towers, the facade has a surprisingly German appearance. Altamura Cathedral, Puglia, Italy. Image credit: Holly Hayes
