Cathedral of Salò - Salò

The Cathedral sits at the center of the town in the same spot where a pagan temple and, later, S. Maria Parish Church once stood. The first stone of the church, dedicated to S. Maria Annunziata and designed by Filippo delle Vacche, was laid on October 7, 1453. The facade and portal are quite beautiful. Inside is the chapel of the Holy Sacrament, with decorations by Giovan Battista Trotti, better known as Malosso. There are many paintings and frescos by Palma di Giovane and Antonio Vassilacchi, and an antique wooden crucifix by Giovanni Teutonico. The polyptych by Paolo Veneziano (1300 - 1362), two paintings by Romanini (1484 - 1566), and works by Zenon Veronese (1484 - 1553), Moretto (1498 - 1564), Andrea Celesti (1637 - 1712), G. Andrea Bertanza, and Angelo Landi (1879 - 1944) are noteworthy. In July, classical music concerts are held in the square before the Cathedral.
