The Cathedral of Ruvo

The co-cathedral of Ruvo di Puglia, dedicated to Santa Maria Assunta, is one of the most important examples of Apulian Romanesque. It was built between the 12th and 13th centuries with various subsequent modifications.

The building stands as the mother and most important church of Ruvo and is the fulcrum of the historic centre. It is connected to the bishop's palace since it was the seat, until 1986, of the diocese of Ruvo.
