Cattedrale di Nicosia

The Cathedral of Nicosia was founded in 1856 by Monsignor Milana and a tombstone placed at the entrance of the sacristy attests to its occurrence. It was dedicated to St. Nicholas of Bari and represents the most significant architectural work of the Sicilian city. The main facade has a greater portal of Gothic-Norman style, where there are also Romanesque motifs such as acanthus leaves and twisted ropes. The Portico, on the other hand, dates back to the end of the fifteenth century and is the work of the sculptors of Palermo Gabriele De Battista and Andra Mancino.
