If you pass a cathedral that is open, you should take a look at it too.

The Cathedral of San Giusto Martire is the spiritual and historical heart of Trieste – a place where Roman, medieval, and Venetian influences overlap. For you, Kai, as a lover of architecture, history, and urban details, it is a true treasure trove.

🏛️ Historical Layers
Roman origins: The hill of San Giusto was once the site of a Capitoline temple dedicated to Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva. Remains of the propylon (access gate) from the 1st century AD are still visible beneath the forecourt.

Early Christian basilica: In the 5th century, a three-aisled church with mosaic floors was built here – fragments of which are still embedded in the cathedral floor today.

Unification of two churches: In the 14th century, the Church of St. Mary and the Church of St. Justus were merged into a single building – this fusion is still evident in the architecture today.
