"San Giusto Cattedrale"
The Cathedral of San Giusto is the most important Catholic religious building in Trieste and stands on the top of the hill with the same name that dominates the city.
The current appearance of the Cathedral derives from the unification of the two pre-existing churches : the Church of Santa Maria and the Church dedicated to the martyr San Giusto, patron of the city of Trieste. The union was made by the then bishop Roberto Pedrazzani da Robecco between 1302 and 1320, thus giving the city a majestic cathedral. In the merger operation a nave was demolished; the plan of the Cathedral thus became five naves.
The gabled façade is characterized by a large double wheel rosette, a statue of San Giusto, coats of arms and a portal deriving from the cut of a Roman funerary stele.The bell tower, with a square plan, was originally higher, but in 1422, following a lightning, its height was reduced to that current.
The interior offers interesting traces of mosaic floors of the fifth century in front of the presbytery, while the apse is decorated with modern mosaics. The frescoes depicting the life of the saint date back to the 13th century.
The main altar of the cathedral was consecrated on 27 November 1385 by the first German bishop of Trieste, Enrico de Widenstein, nominated by the then Austrian emperor Leopold III.
