Tips
The cathedral dates from the 12th century, but its bell tower with machicolations, a defensive tower of the old castle, is older. The cathedral was renovated in the 15th century and has a Pisan-Romanesque facade with some ceramic bowls (13th century); the three portals are 15th century.

The church, which became a cathedral in 1622 when San Miniato was elevated to a diocesan seat, is located in the square known as Prato del Duomo, the area of the ancient citadel, which is dominated by the fortress and tower of Federico II. It is the oldest nucleus of the city, which brings together the Cathedral, the Bishop's Palace and the Palace of the Imperial Vicars. Wikipedia source
