Todi Cathedral

Todi Cathedral was built in the 13th century on the site of a Roman building. It was almost completely destroyed by fire in 1190 and was completed in the 14th century and remodelled several times. The façade dates from the 13th century but has undergone several modifications, the last in the 16th century. The remarkable central rose window was started in 1515 and was completed under Bishop Billioti between 1517 and 1523. Its stained glass windows are not original and date from the 19th-century restoration work.

Amelia Cathedral

The Cathedral of Amelia has been qualified as a co-cathedral since 1986 when the Diocese of Amelia was unified with the Diocese of Terni and Narni. The old cathedral of Amelia dates back to the 9th century; it was seriously damaged by a fire or an earthquake in 1240 and rebuilt in Romanesque style. It was subsequently restored due to the severe damage suffered by the troops of Frederick II in the 13th century. A fire almost completely destroyed the building in 1629 and it was rebuilt in Baroque style. The façade was completed in the 19th century.

Basilica of Sant'Eufemia

The church of St. Euphemia was first mentioned as a monastic church by a written source from the 10th century. From 1500 onwards, the church underwent harmful renovations: its upper floor was annexed to the episcopal palace, the façade was plastered and the small bell tower was demolished. It remained as it was until 1907, when the structure was completely restored and completed in 1954.
