The Cathedral, built at the behest of Saint Peter of Salerno, was completed in 1104 and dedicated to the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary (St. Maria Annunziata). The indoor space is divided into three naves. Interventions made during the XIII century have introduced Gothic architectural elements in the presbytery. Belonging to the above-mentioned century there are the remarkable Cosmatesque flooring, the Episcopal Chair, the Easter Candelabra and finally the wall paintings that represent the Virgin with her Child and St. Peter's head (this one, on the left pillar near the presbytery). The decorations in the apses go back to the XIX century. On the left wall of the Cathedral one can see the Lauri Chapel (XII century), the Baptistery and the Caetani Chapel (XIII century) holding an interesting Gothic funeral monument. On the right aisle there is the Raoli Chapel (XIX century). The Cathedral is open to the public year-round: NOVEMBER - MARCH 9.00am - 1.00pm / 3.00pm - 6.00pm APRIL - OCTOBER 9.00am - 1.00pm / 3.00pm - 7.00pm During the Mass visits are suspended.
