Explorar Perugia

Perugia Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Lawrence, stands on Piazza IV Novembre opposite the Palazzo dei Priori. Built from 1345 to 1490 to a design by Fra Bevignate, its flank on the square has an unfinished marble cladding and the 1423 Loggia di Braccio. Inside are a hall nave and the chapel of the Holy Ring.

The Basilica of San Pietro is the church of a Benedictine abbey on the southern edge of Perugia's old town, founded around 996 by the abbot Pietro Vincioli. Its 70 m bell tower is the tallest structure in the city. Entered from the first cloister, the church holds paintings by Perugino and L'Aliense and a 16th-century inlaid wooden choir.
