    The Cathedral of Messina was inaugurated on September 22, 1197 by Archbishop Berardo, in the presence of Emperor Henry VI. and his wife Konstanze, daughter of the Norman King Roger II of Sicily. In the course of history it has been destroyed and rebuilt several times, so that hardly anything remains of the original structure.

    The original beamed ceiling was destroyed in a fire in 1254. The corpse of the Hohenstaufen King Konrad IV, who had died shortly before, fell victim to this fire.
