Patti Cathedral (Italian: Duomo di Patti; Basilica cattedrale di San Bartolomeo) is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Patti, Sicily, Italy, dedicated to Saint Bartholomew.
Count Roger of Altavilla founded the Benedictine monastery of the Most Holy Savior in the 1090s; he had the church built and dedicated to St. Bartholomew the Apostle.[1]
The central portal is in Gothic style; inside the cathedral are works of art and funeral monuments, including the sarcophagus of Queen Adelasia, wife of Count Roger and mother of Roger II, first king of Sicily.[1] as well as Madonna and Child Enthroned between Angels by Antonello de Saliba and the 18th century The Adoration of the Shepherds.[2]
The tympanum includes a coat of arms of the Bourbons.[3]
After an earthquake in 1693, the cathedral had to be almost completely rebuilt.[4]
It is the episcopal seat of the Diocese of Patti.
