La Cattedrale di San Martino a Lucca

The Cathedral of San Martino in Lucca.
The beautiful Cathedral of the city of Lucca. To tell the truth, for the first two times I had been in the city, I thought that the most important church was San Michele in Foro but thanks to the beautiful television program Meraviglie – La penesola dei tesori by Alberto Angela I discovered the importance and beauty of this church that I promptly went to visit!

The main façade, oriented towards the west, is supported by the portico-narthex opening onto the square by three large arches, one of which is narrower due to the proximity of the pre-existing bell tower. Guidetto and his collaborators created bas-reliefs with the martyrdom of Saint Regolo depicted in the lunette above the entrance to the right nave, a cycle of the months and stories of Saint Martin.
