    Tips

    Look around, you will see that the cathedral is the only old building in the area. It initially resisted the bombardment of 1695. It then escaped another demolition, because it is at the foot of the cathedral, under the concrete pavement, that the north-south rail link passes, the work of which lasted 1902 to 1952 and during which a large part of the old town was demolished.

    This old lady, however, suffers from the vibrations caused by the metro and the train which pass under its foundations. During its restoration, which lasted several decades, the buttresses which support the roof had spread so far that the whole threatened to collapse. The curator at the time brought in Sicilian miners to dig under the buttresses and give them a more stable foundation, which saved the cathedral.
