Create an itinerary including Duomo di Sant'Andrea
Remodeled many times since the ninth century, Duomo di Sant'Andrea is home to the Crypt of St. Andrew. Two crosses--one a 13th-century wooden crucifix, the other mother of pearl brought from the Holy Land--represent two different periods in the cathedral's history. The bronze doors of the church were cast in the city of Constantinople before 1066, making them the city's earliest architectural feature of post-Roman manufacture. Visit the gardens, where arches, colonnades, and sculptures blend in with the colorful landscaping.

  • Impressive cathedral for the the time it was built. The stairs leading to it gives a very imposing view with the bell tower on the left. Climbing the stairs is like a going thru time travel to many centuries back in history. The court yard is lovely with the arches and the garden in the center. The crypt below is so ornate your eyes will have to work overtime. Next you will enter the cathedral which is also very impressively decorated. Three euros is well worth spent.
  • Main attraction in Amalfi as the church is located right in the heart of the town. Huge staircases to the entrance where people normally sit there to rest and chill. From there, you can see the Amalfi square with the good vibe of this busy town. The duomo has its own unique design and charm as a mediaeval cathedral. Quite different to other European cathedrals we have been to. You can see the bell tower on the right hand side of the church too. Lots of good shops, restaurants and cafeteria around. Its hard to miss this spot once you are in Amalfi.
