The symbol of the town, Cathedral of Santa Maria Maggiore boasts a somber but elegant facade and serene interior.

  • Duomo of Spilimbergo is a unique in that city where one can only, silently, admire the great job that is done. Between prayers and adoration, you can admire the inside atmosphere while trying to understand each single design and pictures on the wall. A must visit place when visiting Spilimbergo
  • Quite lovely. Simple, beautiful, peaceful & prayerful. The Cript & some of the older paintings are excellent. I look forward to our next visit
