Avezzano Cathedral

Avezzano, Italy · built 1930

Avezzano Cathedral (Cattedrale di Avezzano, Cattedrale di San Bartolomeo) is a Roman Catholic cathedral dedicated to Saint Bartholomew in Avezzano, Abruzzo, Italy. There have been churches on the site since the 11th century but earthquakes have repeatedly destroyed them; the present cathedral dates from after the great earthquake of 1915. Since 1924 the cathedral has been the episcopal seat of the Diocese of Avezzano, replacing the former Diocese of Marsi and its episcopal seat at Pescina Cathedral, which has since then been a co-cathedral in the new diocese.
