Benevento's cathedral, rebuilt after the war, with its 13th-century bell tower.

The Cathedral of Santa Maria de Episcopio has Lombard origins and was rebuilt after the bombing of 1943, which spared the Romanesque façade and the 13th-century bell tower.Beneath the church you can visit the hypogeum with the remains of the earlier building. It is in the heart of the historic centre, near the Roman Theatre.
