The Cathedral Church Built in 1724, the Cathedral Church rises in the main square of the small town and before it there is a very suggestive flight of steps. The outside shows a front in baroque style as simple as refined. The upper part of the front has been finished and changed by the architect Carlo Sada (1809-1873). He changed the original aspect and added the completion instead of the clock which was then set into Townhall.

As regards the inside it is very evocative also in consideration of its largeness. Its structure shows a Latin cross plan with three naves divided by five arcades. The cross-vault exstends for good 22 metres in length and in direction of the centre there is a dome which elevates to 39 metres from the ground.
