Basilica Cattedrale di Reggio Calabria Maria SS Assunta, Reggio Calabria
Reggio Calabria Cathedral
The first church was built around 300 AD on the ruins of a Greek temple to Apollo. It has been expanded and remodeled over the centuries. Completely destroyed by the Messina earthquake in 1908, the cathedral was rebuilt in neo-Romanesque style.
The main facade is divided by four towers. The statues of St. Paul and St. Stephen are on the left and right of the portal on the outside staircase. The church building was completed in 1928, the 28 m high campanile in 1931.
