At the other end of the port, in Piazza del Duomo, is the city’s main attraction, the Cattedrale di Trani, considered the queen of all the cathedrals in Puglia. The Cattedrale di San Nicola Pellegrino, built in 1099, is very special, first of all, for its position just a few meters from the sea. In Pugliese Romanesque architectural style, the contrast between the white color of the Trani stone and the blues of the sky and the Adriatic Sea is impressive. There are actually 3 churches in one: the Basilica Superiore, the crypt of San Nicola and the crypt of Santa Maria della Scala, the original church.
