Cathedral of Vigevano preserving several interesting paintings.

The cathedral of Vigevano overlooking Piazza Ducale was commissioned by Duke Francesco Sforza in 1532. The interior, with its Latin cross plan, contains several interesting paintings. The impressive concave baroque façade is the later work of the architect and bishop of the city Juan Caramuel in 1608. The museum of the diocese preserves a collection of religious objects, most of which were donated by Francesco II Sforza. Among the most beautiful pieces are a silver reliquary engraved with gold and a gold vestment used in 1805 for the coronation of Bonaparte.

classique et simple et pour revenir
la façade sur la place est spectaculaire car elle tombe au lieu de sortir sur la place, comme si l'architecte avait un peu honte, au contraire le style épuré invite à l'entrée. Au lieu des peintures je voudrais attirer l'attention sur un présumé fossile (voir photo) qui est resté dans le marbre de la dernière chapelle à droite. Il est situé dans la balustrade à droite près du sol. Il existe différentes hypothèses du dinosaure à l'ammonite, mais la forme est étrange.
