Cathedral Square

The Cathedral Square is one of the most beautiful squares of Bergamo. There are magnificent buildings of different eras, first of all - the cathedral itself with its amazing facade, built in the neoclassical style, as well as a small Romanesque church of Santa Maria Maggiore, the interior of which is made in the style of classical baroque, and a small octagonal baptistery, attracting the views of tourists with its bizarre form. But still the most noteworthy is the magnificent Colleoni Chapel - a masterpiece of the Lombard Renaissance, located next to the temple of Santa Maria Maggiore. The chapel was built by order of the famous condottier Bartolomeo Colleoni at the end of the XV century. Walking through the square of the Cathedral, you seem to be transported several centuries ago and feel like a contemporary of knights and kings.

After a long sightseeing, you can relax in one of the nearby squares, equipped with fountains and comfortable wooden benches. Every year on the square of the Cathedral of Bergamo comes to see many tourists who want to personally enjoy the majestic buildings of different eras.
