The Cathedral of Matera , which has the official name of Cathedral of the Madonna della Bruna and Sant'Eustachio , is the main Catholic place of worship in Matera , the mother church of the Archdiocese of Matera-Irsina . The cathedral was built in Apulian Romanesque style in the 13th century on the highest spur of the Civita that divides the two Sassi.
Built on the site of a previous Norman castle and as recent excavations on a previous early Christian place of worship attest, it is the most majestic cathedral in the region.
