The Cathedral of Sulmona San Panfilo

San Panfilo Cathedral is a complicated mix or Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque architecture (being result of two catastrophe earthquakes of 1456 and 1706). I recommend to look at Romanesque apses, Gothic portal, two medieval tombs and wonderful crypt

Lovely cathedral, with gorgeous architecture/art and easily accessible crypt.

Coming from the railway station it should be your first stop. It is a roman church with a crypt from the eight century. During the years the church has got baroque and renaissance influence. There is a lot to see and I spent there more than an hour to enjoy all the details. Don’t mis the 14 th century Crucifixion fresco, the charming Madonna of the furnaces (11th century), Chapel of S. Panfilo (who saved the city from the plague), the organ at the entrance and the crypt with the fine marble entrance.

A rich and nicely decorated Vatican Church. I did appriciate the marbel and granit works. Aswell the writings on the inner chapel which every chriatian should follow, expecially the second one which states "Da qui si esce per amare il prossimo." Something that the same Vatican should learn to follow.

Very nice cathedral.

I'm just leaving a review for this Chapel so there are no longer "666" reviews....

Amazing,it is a massive church and has a hole underground area under the church

Beautifully renovated for Pope's visit few years back.
