La Spezia Cathedral, also known as Cattedrale di Cristo Re, is a modern architectural marvel located in La Spezia, Italy. Designed by architect Adalberto Libera and completed in the 1970s, the cathedral is notable for its circular design and stark, minimalist aesthetic, which distinguishes it from more traditional cathedrals in Italy. The structure features a large, open interior space that emphasizes simplicity and light, with a distinctive dome that enhances its contemporary feel. The cathedral is dedicated to Christ the King and serves as the main place of worship for the Roman Catholic Diocese of La Spezia-Sarzana-Brugnato.
