AMALFI, Cathedral Interior

Baroque style prevails here inside the cathedral, as you can see from the rich marble decorations and stucco work, although the traces of ancient columns that remain visible also contribute to the charm and history of the place. As you venture into the aisles, look up and admire the masterfully crafted coffered ceiling above you.

Gothic and Renaissance styles prevail in the side chapels. One of these houses a group of wood sculptures depicting the Apparition of Saint Michael Archangel to Saint Fedele, surmounted by the tomb of the holy martyr. The ceiling, adorned with golden friezes, tells the Stories of St. Andrew, patron saint of the city.

On the left aisle, you will find the 16th-century statue of the saint, along with those of the Dead Christ and Our Lady of Sorrows. In the striking Chapel of Reconciliation, located at the end of the nave, rests the relic of St. Andrew's head, or rather a portion of it, since part of it was returned to the city of Patras....
