Detail InformationEdit

The Cathedral of St. Pantaleo is a church in the historical center of Dolianova, Sardinia, Italy, one of the main Romanesque buildings in the island.

The site of the church has been connected with the Christian worship as early as the 6th century AD, as testified by a Palaeo-Christian baptismal font housed under the church’s presbytery. The existence of the diocese of Dolia (ancient name of Dolianova) is documented from 1089 until 1503, when it was merged into the archdiocese of Cagliari. The cathedral, titular seat of the former, was erected between the 12th and the 13th centuries.

The church is in Pisane-Romanesque Style with some Gothic elements (dating to the last construction phase, in the 13th century), and was built of sandstone. The façade, the sides, the apse and the bell tower are decorated with pilasters and Lombard bands featuring numerous different sculptured motifs, such as geometrical patterns, human figures and mythological animals.

The interior has a nave and two aisles, divided by cruciform pilasters, some of which of the Gothic polycolumn type. The sculpted capitals portray evangelical scenes, such as the “Nativity” and the “Adoration of the Magi”.
