    The cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta is the mother church of Lecce and the seat of the archbishop. It was built in the 12th century in Romanesque style and then rebuilt in the 17th century in Lecce Baroque style by the architect Giuseppe Zimbalo. It has two facades: a main one, sober and elegant, and a side one, rich and scenographic, which overlooks the Piazza del Duomo. The bell tower, 70 meters high, is considered the symbol of the city.
