Como - Cathedral

Adjoining the Broletto to the southeast is the cathedral, built entirely of marble (originally erected 1396, remodeled in Renaissance style 1426-1596; dome over crossing 1730-70). On either side of the principal doorway, which has fine sculptured decorations, are statues (1498) of Pliny the Elder and Younger, natives of Como. Southeast of the cathedral in Via Vittorio Emanuele II, Como's principal street, is the Romanesque church of San Fedele (12th century). Opposite it is the Town Hall.
