Ancona Cathedral

Ancona Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Cyriacus, stands on the Guasco hill above the port, on the site of a Greek temple and a 6th-century basilica. Enlarged between the 11th and 13th centuries into a Greek-cross church, it mixes Romanesque, Byzantine and Gothic forms; two columns of its porch rest on stone lions. Remains of the earlier buildings lie under glass.
