Juliana Village Activities Program – July 2018 The Culture of the month is : Italian 8 Most Famous Landmarks in Italy 1. Milan Cathedral Also known as the Duomo di Milano, this grand building is the second largest Catholic cathedral in the world. Only Spain’s Seville Cathedral is larger. The Milan Cathedral is a wondrous white structure that covers an entire block. Its exterior features thousands of spires, and there are more statutes on this gothic and neogothic cathedral than on any other building in the world. Construction on this building first began in 1386, but — probably not surprising given its size — it took approximately five centuries to complete. With five naves, the interior of this cathedral is also very large. If you have time, make sure to venture to the top of the cathedral where you can enjoy stunning views of the surrounding area. 2. Cathedral of Monreale Located in Sicily, this attractive building can be found just a few miles from Palermo, the capital city of this island. The Monreale Cathedral, which was once a part of a royal complex, is considered by many to be the finest example of Norman architecture in Sicily. Construction first began on this building in the 12th century and because Sicilian and Byzantine craftsmen worked on the project, you can see influences from both cultures throughout the cathedral. Juliana Village Activities Program – July 2018 The Monreale Cathedral is most famous for the gorgeous golden mosaics depicting events from the Bible that cover its interior. And if you decide to make the climb to the top of this cathedral, which is located high up on a slope of Monte Caputo, you will be rewarded with beautiful views of Palermo. 3. Ponte Vecchio The much-photographed Ponte Vecchio, which spans the Arno River, is the oldest bridge in Florence. The bridge as it appears today dates back to 1345, though it is believed that there may have been a structure spanning the river prior to that. The Ponte Vecchio you can see today is a closed medieval stone bridge that is home to numerous goldsmiths and jewelry shops and is bustling with tourists. During World War II, this bridge was the only one spared by the Germans as they retreated. Local legend claims that it was Adolf Hitler who ordered that the famous bridge be spared because he was so impressed with it during his visit to Florence in 1939.
