Alghero Cathedral, officially the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, is a striking 16th-century church that exemplifies Catalan Gothic architecture with later Renaissance and Baroque additions. Located in the heart of the historic center on Piazza Duomo, its facade features a tall bell tower and a rose window. Inside, visitors can admire a wooden choir, a marble altar, and a notable baptismal font. The cathedral is the seat of the Bishop of Alghero-Bosa and remains an active place of worship. Its prominent position makes it a central landmark for exploring the old town.
