Cathedral of Reggio Calabria

Highlight • Religious Site

Basilica Cattedrale di Reggio Calabria Maria SS Assunta, Reggio Calabria
Reggio Calabria Cathedral
The first church was built around 300 AD on the ruins of a Greek temple to Apollo. It has been expanded and remodeled over the centuries. Completely destroyed by the Messina earthquake in 1908, the cathedral was rebuilt in neo-Romanesque style.
The main facade is divided by four towers. The statues of St. Paul and St. Stephen are on the left and right of the portal on the outside staircase. The church building was completed in 1928, the 28 m high campanile in 1931.

Palazzo San Giorgio (Reggio Calabria City Hall)

Highlight • Monument

Reggio Calabria
The origins of the city are ancient: it was founded in 734 BC. Founded by the Greeks from Euboea, during the great Greek period it experienced a period of great splendor under the tyrant Anasilao, who united the two cities of the strait (Rhegion and Zancle, today Messina). In the 15th century it was conquered by the Bourbons. However, these left no obvious traces in Reggio, which unfortunately cannot be said of the earthquakes of 1873 and 1908, which completely destroyed it. The place founded by the Greeks was never left by the Reggians, who began the reconstruction with a lot of patience and commitment: it was during this period that most of the archaeological finds from Roman and Greek times came to light, such as e.g. B. the famous bronze statues of Riace, now in the MAaRC, the Archaeological Museum of Reggio Calabria.
