Overview

Inside the Cathedral of Bergamo we will see the remains of St. Alexander, martyr, patron saint of the city and who gives his name to the monument. We will learn from our guide where the rivalry of having two episcopal seats until the mid-fifteenth century came from. If in Milan they have The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci, here we have a dome with spectacular frescoes by Giulio Quaglio that seem to create three-dimensional effects. Next door, we have the Basilica of Maria Maggiore which was built in the early 12th century as a votive offering to eradicate the plague that plagued the people of Bergamo. As was customary in Christianity, the various artistic manifestations (tapestries, paintings, chairs, stained glass, sculptures, etc.) were used to teach those who had not been able to study to read and interpret the sacred books. Not to mention the choir stalls, which have recently been restored with funds from the Bishopric and the financial sector of the city. And to put the finishing touch, we will enter the Colleoni Chapel, (they say it is the most beautiful mausoleum in Italy). Do not miss the history of the coat of arms, its colored marbles and imposing equestrian sculpture.
