The Duomo di Vercelli, also known as the Cattedrale di Sant'Eusebio, is the most important religious building in Vercelli. This cathedral, dedicated to Saint Eusebius, the patron saint of Vercelli, has a rich history and impressive architecture.
The origins of the Duomo date back to the Paleochristian era. Near the cemetery of San Teonesto, the alleged first Christian martyr of Vercelli, a basilica was built between the 5th and 6th centuries. This replaced the original cathedral, Santa Maria Maggiore, which was located elsewhere in the city.
The current Duomo is a result of several construction phases. It combines elements of Mannerism, Baroque, Neoclassical and Eclecticism. Architects such as Pellegrino Tibaldi and Benedetto Alfieri contributed to its construction. The interior houses notable works of art, including the monumental Ottonian Crucifix.
Inside the Duomo there are treasures such as:
The Ottonian crucifix: an impressive crucifix.
*The Madonna dello Schiaffo: a painting with a special legend.
*Reliquaries and the treasury with jewels and precious fabrics.
*Baroque altars and beautiful organs.

The Metropolitan Cathedral of Sant'Eusebio is the main church of Vercelli. Built near the burial of Sant'Eusebio di Vercelli, the first bishop and patron saint of Piedmont, it includes several important works of art among which the monumental Ottonian crucifix stands out. Several members of the House of Savoy are buried inside. It was declared a national monument in 1940.

Vercelli, city of the Francigena and with a thousand-year history. It owes its splendor above all to the power of the medieval bishopric and then to the cultivation of rice
