About Cagliari Cathedral
Cagliari Cathedral is a Roman Catholic house of God in Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy, committed to the Virgin Mary and to Saint Cecilia. It is the seat of the diocese supervisor of Cagliari. The congregation was worked in the thirteenth century in Pisan-Romanesque style, getting church building status in 1258. In the seventeenth and eighteenth hundreds of years it was redesigned along Baroque lines.
In the 1930’s it at long last got the current facade, in Neo-Romanesque style, enlivened by Pisa Cathedral. The congregation was worked by the Pisans in their fortress sitting above the city, Castel di Castro. It has a square arrangement, with a nave and two passageways, the last having cross vaults, while the nave had a wooden roof. In 1258, after the Pisans had annihilated the capital of the Giudicato of Cagliari, Santa Igia, and its basilica, it turned into the seat of the bishopric of Cagliari.
The main attraction is the ambo of Guglielmo, a twelfth century combine of podiums by one Master Guglielmo, initially etched for the house of God of Pisa. It was taken to Cagliari in 1312 and set in the nave, close to its third section. In 1669 it was part in two, and the two lecterns set in their present areas. The four marble lions which upheld the ambo are presently situated at the feet of the presbytery balustrade. Figures incorporate scenes from the New Testament.
