Amalfi Catholic churches

Amalfi has two churches where your catholic wedding celebration can be performed.

Duomo of Amalfi

The Duomo of Amalfi is certainly one of the most impressive churches in Italy. This cathedral hosts the relics of the apostle St. Andrew, one of the first disciples of Jesus, and since ancient times this famous church in Amalfi has been a place of devotion and adoration. The historical Duomo of St. Andrews is located in the main square of Amalfi. Its present façade, brilliant with Byzantine mosaics, is in Oriental style; its bronze doors, the first ones to appear in Italy, were given to Amalfi by Pantaleone di Mauro Comite, a nobleman from Amalfi, who melted them in the 11th century in Constantinople where he lived and led the Imperial Party. The Duomo rises proudly at the end of steep steps that dominate the lively piazza where it is possible to admire a beautiful 18th-century fountain.

Sant'Antonio

If you are planning a more intimate wedding you may consider a catholic wedding ceremony in the secluded chapel of Sant'Antonio, annexed to a former medieval convent founded by St. Francis in the 13th century. The interior of the church is very picturesque with a single nave and decorated with valuable frescoes.
