Cattedrale
La Cattedrale di Matera (1230/1270) sorge su un terrapieno artificiale, nell’area della Civita, così da sovrastare la città, imponendosi come punto di riferimento per il borgo e per chi la ammira. Dedicata alla Madonna della Bruna e a Sant’Eustachio, Santi Patroni, è decorata da elementi architettonici che ne fanno uno degli esempi più interessanti dello stile romanico pugliese. Al di sopra del portale principale, in una nicchia, si fa notare la statua della Madonna della Bruna, mentre ai lati, oltre a quelle di San Pietro, a destra, e San Paolo, a sinistra, si può ammirare la statua di Sant’Eustachio. Elemento di gran rilievo è poi il rosone romanico che ripropone il tema della ruota della fortuna e singolare è anche il campanile a base quadrata. Spostandosi sul prospetto laterale l’attenzione cade sulle due porte riccamente decorate: una detta “porta di piazza”, anticipata da una scalinata, l’altra nota come “porta dei leoni”, per la presenza delle due statue poste ai lati che raffigurano, appunto, due leoni.
Entrando nella Cattedrale appare evidente il contrasto con lo stile esterno. Nulla è rimasto allo stato originario, eccetto pochi importanti affreschi ed i bei capitelli medioevali figurati delle 10 colonne, molto lavorati e l’uno differente dall’altro; il resto è stato completamente alterato nel corso dei secoli.
Per questo non ho foto dell'interno.Non lo sopporto.

The Cathedral of Matera (1230/1270) stands on an artificial embankment, in the area of Civita, so as to overlook the city, imposing itself as a reference point for the village and for those who admire it. Dedicated to the Madonna della Bruna and Sant'Eustachio, Patron Saints, it is decorated with architectural elements that make it one of the most interesting examples of Apulian Romanesque style. Above the main portal, in a niche, you can see the statue of Our Lady of the Brown, while at the sides, in addition to those of St. Peter, on the right, and St. Paul, on the left, you can admire the statue of St. Eustace. The Romanesque rose window is also of great importance, with the theme of the wheel of fortune and the bell tower with its square base is also unusual. Moving to the side elevation, attention falls on the two richly decorated doors: one called the "door of the square", anticipated by a staircase, the other known as the "door of the lions", for the presence of two statues on the sides that represent, precisely, two lions.
Entering the Cathedral, the contrast with the external style is evident. Nothing has remained in its original state, except for a few important frescoes and the beautiful medieval capitals of the 10 columns, very worked and different from each other, the rest has been completely altered over the centuries
That's why I don't have any inside pictures. I can't stand it.
