Amalfi Cathedral (
Italian:
Cattedrale di Sant'Andrea/Duomo di Amalfi) is a 9th century Christian structure in the Piazza del Duomo,
Amalfi,
Italy. It is dedicated to the
Apostle Saint Andrew. Predominantly of
Arab-
Norman Romanesque architectural style, it has been remodeled several times, adding
Romanesque,
Byzantine,
Gothic, and
Baroque elements. The newer cathedral was built next to the older basilica that was built on the ruins of a previous temple. The remains of St. Andrew were reportedly brought to Amalfi from Constantinople in 1206 during the
Fourth Crusade by Cardinal
Peter of Capua. In 1208, the crypt was completed and the relics were turned over to the church.
