Cathedral of San Cassiano
It is dedicated to St. Cassiano, the patron saint of the city whose wooden statue dominates from above in the deep apse. Of the primitive temple, only a small valuable white marble statue of St. Lucy remains from the first half of the 5th century. The relics are massed together in the dim light of the nave. On the side of the Cathedral rises the bell tower, adorned by a rounded base of marble. The former bell tower was built in 1751 but the present bell tower was erected again in 1757.
