Together with the bronze statues of Riace and the National Archaeological Museum, the Aragonese Castle is considered one of the city's symbols. Although it is defined as "Aragonese", its foundation actually dates back to the Byzantine period, between the 9th and 11th centuries, when Reggio became the capital of Calabria. It was only in the Spanish era that the structure underwent a radical transformation, at the behest of King Ferdinand I of Aragon, with the addition of two imposing circular crenellated towers, which gave it its current appearance and the "Aragonese" name. The oldest part of the building was demolished after the 1908 earthquake to allow the opening of some of the city's streets.

The cathedral was rebuilt several times after looting, fires or destruction due to seismic events. There is uncertain information about the cathedral for the period between the 4th and 14th centuries. Around the middle of the 11th century it was destroyed by the Saracens, then rebuilt by the Normans and ravaged again by the Turks in 1574. At the end of the 17th century, the reconstruction began by Archbishop Mons. Creales and completed by Archbishop Martino Ybanez y Villanueva. In recent times, the two devastating earthquakes of 1783 and 1908 have greatly affected its fate and have required the building to be rebuilt twice.
