Matera Cathedral
The Matera Cathedral is located in the part of the city known as the Civita, which was the nucleus of the Sassi. It is the highest and most prominent part of Matera. The Cathedral is build int Apulian-Romanesque style in 13th century.
On March 5th, 2016 it was officially reopened for worship and visiting. The restoration work continued over thirteen years, after the collapses of 2003.
The side façade of the church has two monumental doors: Porta di Piazza and Porta dei Leoni.
The central rose window is made in a style that was extremely fashionable at the time – the wheel of fortune, symbolising the luck of the draw.
All photographs were taken in Jan 2018. Equipment used: Camera Pentax K-5, lens Pentax DA 12-14.

Очень красивый собор, как и сам город!
Это да. Правда, пока мы до него дотопали, силы были почти на исходе, и физические, и эмоциональные )) Но не пожалели
