As we see in the 4th
novella in the 2 nd day of the Decameron, the scenary
and the monuments of Ravello, which was founded by a
roman colony in the 6th century A.D. were already
famous centuries ago. Perched on a 350 ft high cliff
overlooking the blue sea of the Amalfi Coast, it has
conserved its historical monuments through the ages in
a natural setting which has few equals in the
world.One of the most important monuments is the
Cathedral, founded in 1086, where one can admire the
Ambo and the Pulpit decorated with Byzantine masaics,
relics as the bust of Sigilgaita Rufolo, the splendid
bronze doors by Barisano da Trani and the museum
situated in the crypt.
