St. Peter's Cathedral
Also known as the Treviso Cathedral, this cathedral was originally built in the place of a previous Roman temple. Remodelled in the 12th century in a Romanesque style,and remodeled again in the 18th century in a neoclassical style, the current building dates from the 19th century. Much still remains of the previous buildings however, most natably the crypt, wherein several of Treviso's bishops are buried. There is a legend surrounding the cathedral's unfinished bell tower, which states that it was stopped mid-construction by the Venetian government so that it would not be taller than the tower on St. Marks square.
