welcome to the Paradise - Ravello city of Music  - Duomo di Ravello  ( Italy)
 

 
It was constructed in 1086 by the first Bishop of Ravello, Orso Papice. This diocese was directly responsible to the Pope in Rome but was abolished in 1818 after a succession of 55 bishops. The Cathedral has gone through many transformations both externally and internally and today after much restoration we are able to admire its original Romano architecture. The bronze doors, donated by a Ravellese aristocrat in 1179 were made by Barisano da Trani
