The church dates back to the early 1500s and is imposing and austere inside. Its neo-classical façade was added in the 19th century and is completely different. The cathedral of Alghero is small and hardly merits its appellation. It's still a place to visit when you are touring the old center of the city. Its location is ideal. The street in front is decorated with hanging birdcages. All the streets around have good shops and restaurants that will keep you busy for a couple of hours. Interesting church outside and inside, different style are easy visible. Pretty gothic cathedral, worth a visit 👍🏻 Dazzling gothic Cathedral at the heart of Alghero's old town. Incredible amount of chapels tributed to different Saints and invocations of the Virgin Mary including Our Lady of Montserrat due to the historical connection of Alghero with Catalonia (Spain). There is also an impressive neoclassical mausoleum from the Duke of Montferrato Maurizio Giuseppe di Savoia. Moreover, we find a stunning pipe organ from 1935 with 116 notes. Perfect visit for a moment of spirituality and reflection while visiting Alghero's old town. Interesting architecture. The marble altar and pulpit are amazing. I visited in October, so it was not very busy. As I entered, the organist started rehearsals ,and Wow! It was so evocative! Loved it. One of the most beautiful and awe inspiring cathedrals in Europe. Highly recommended to see for the original marble alter pieces. A must to see for world cathedral aficionados.
