Amalfi Catholic churches
In Amalfi there are two churches where to perform a catholic wedding. The first one is certainly one of the most impressive churches of Italy, the historical Duomo of St. Andrews, located in the main square of Amalfi. Its present façade, brilliant with byzantine mosaics, is in Oriental style; its bronze doors, the first ones to appear in Italy, were given to Amalfi by Pantaleone di Mauro Comite, a noble man from Amalfi, who melted them in the 11th century in Constantinople where he lived and led the Imperial Party. The Duomo rises proudly at the end of steep steps that dominates that lively piazza where it is possible to admire a beautiful 18th century fountain.

Antonio annexed to a former medieval convent founded by St. Francis in the 13th century. The interior of the church is very picturesque with a single nave and decorated by valuable frescoes.
