Historic Churches & Cathedrals

Italy’s architectural legacy is anchored by these 18 historic sites, ranging from the white marble Gothic spires of Milan Cathedral to the Byzantine mosaics of Ravenna’s San Vitale. The collection spans centuries, featuring the Romanesque complex of Pisa, the Tuscan Gothic of Siena, and the unique Norman-Arab-Byzantine fusion in Sicily’s Monreale and Palermo cathedrals. Spiritual landmarks like the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi and the Benedictine Montecassino Abbey offer insight into monastic history, while the Scrovegni Chapel and Lecce’s Baroque Santa Croce showcase the evolution of Italian fresco and sculpture.
