This spot, along with the church, offers one of the best viewpoints of Matera’s stunning landscape. The walk up may be a bit of a climb, but it’s absolutely worth it for the breathtaking views that await. From here, you get an incredible panorama of the ancient stone city with its unique caves and historic architecture, which almost seem to glow at sunset. The rugged landscape combined with the timeless beauty of Matera’s buildings creates a view that feels like stepping back in time. The atmosphere is serene and awe-inspiring, making it an unforgettable part of any visit to Matera.

Situata sul punto più elevato di Matera, la Basilica Pontificia-Cattedrale con il suo alto campanile si distingue per la sua imponenza tra le piccole e fitte abitazioni del Sasso Barisano. Per questo è diventata il soggetto di numerosi scatti durante la nostra visita ai Sassi di Matera. Il balcone in Piazza Duomo, davanti al Sagrato, offre una vista incantevole, dove le panoramiche si sprecano. Riprendere il Sagrato, la stupenda facciata e il complesso edificio è un’impresa ardua per via delle numerose auto, che stazionano indisturbate in Piazza Duomo. Uno scempio che andrebbe evitato. L’interno molto luminoso, a tre navate con transetto a formare la consueta croce latina, mostra la magnificenza del Barocco sovrapposta all’originario stile romanico pugliese. La ricchezza è mostrata non solo dalle lamine d’oro, che rivestono i fregi e le cornici, ma anche e soprattutto dalle numerose opere d’arte presenti, quali l’affresco trecentesco sulla parete dietro il fonte battesimale, la Cappella della Madonna della Bruna con il famoso affresco bizantino, la Cappella rinascimentale dell’Annunziata, la Cappella del Presepe, il Dossale di Altare con sculture pregevoli, la Pale dell’Altare maggiore del 1600 ed il coro ligneo con 60 stalle del 1500 e numerose altre.

Was lucky to visit Matara during July 2020 when there were virtually no tourists, due to COVID-19. Stunning cathedral at the entrance of the old town. First stop on the divento.com itinerary planner which accurately describes it as 'an exquisite edifice, dating back to the 13th century with an essentially Baroque interior and a splendid view of the sassi on one side'

Very ornate with several very well kept paintings. Do not miss the ceiling! Very old, but the paintings very clear and photograph well. Also, hidden to side of High Altar is a very large and ornate nativity scene. Very Large and detailed. In front of the main doors, do not miss the Vista off the ledge-portico. Early morning and late night photograph s very well.
