Ravenna Cathedral

The Metropolitan Cathedral of the Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ (cattedrale metropolitana della Risurrezione di Nostro Signore Gesù Cristo) is the main church in the city of Ravenna and episcopal seat of the bishop of the archdiocese of Ravenna-Cervia.

The present Baroque building followed the 18th century demolition of the ancient cathedral, the early 5th century basilica Ursiana. It was promoted to minor basilica status by pope John XXIII on 7 October 1960, and the seat of the parish of San Giovanni in Fonte belonging to the Urban Vicariate of the archdiocese of Ravenna-Cervia.
