What people say
Silvia De Caro
Available for hire
"The Cathedral of Lecce, also known as the Cathedral of Santa Maria Santissima Assunta, is the most important religious building in Lecce. We are talking about an authentic wonder, to be admired both outside and inside. Dedicated to Maria Santissima Assunta, built first in 1144 and again in 1230, it has a very rich northern façade which is a true triumph of the Baroque. Inside, don't miss a visit to the 4 altars: the altar of the Crucifix, of the Addolorata, of the Immaculate Conception and of Sant'Oronzo.
🎟️Ticket cost: single ticket $11 for Lecce Cathedral, Basilica of Santa Croce, Church of Santa Chiara, Church of San Matteo and Museum of Sacred Art."

"Beautiful, my favorite of the Lecce churches. Most of this piazza is religious buildings, including a seminary and bishop's residence.
The less ornate side is the main entrance. "
