Cathedral of Santa Maria la Nuova sent on December 01, 2020 (14:05) by Gast1. 43 comments, 1168 views. [retina]

at 24mm, 1/15 f/4.0, ISO 800, hand held. Palermo, Italy.

Il Duomo di Monreale, o Basilica Cattedrale di Santa Maria la Nuova, fu costruito a partire dal 1174 per volere di Guglielmo II d'Altavilla, re di Sicilia dal 1166 al 1189, sui fianchi scoscesi del Monte Caputo a dominare tutta la Conca d'Oro ed è oggi sede vescovile dell'arcidiocesi di Monreale. I mosaici, che impreziosiscono il Duomo di Monreale, costituiscono la più grande decorazione di questo genere in Italia (superiore anche a quella della Basilica di San Marco a Venezia) con 0,75 ettari di tessere di pietra ed almeno 100 milioni in vetro a formare una superficie complessiva di 6240 metri quadri, seconda al mondo per estensione solamente alla chiesa di Santa Sofia a Istanbul. Nell'agosto del 1926 papa Pio XI l'ha elevata alla dignità di basilica minore. Dal 3 luglio 2015 fa parte del Patrimonio dell'umanità (UNESCO) nell'ambito dell'Itinerario arabo-normanno di Palermo, Cefalù e Monreale. Il prezioso organo custodito all'interno del Duomo di Monreale, è stato costruito dalla ditta organaria padovana Fratelli Ruffatti e si compone di ben 10.000 canne. E' inoltre l'unico organo in Italia ad avere una consolle con sei tastiere. #Chiese #Churches #Prospettive #Interni #Simmetrie #Symmetry #Monumenti Tutte le foto contenute in questa galleria sono copyright Gastone Segala e non possono essere utilizzate in alcuna forma senza il consenso dell'autore.
