Perugia Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of San Lorenzo, is a significant religious and historical site located in the heart of Perugia, Italy. Dedicated to Saint Lawrence, the cathedral's construction began in 1345 and extended into the early 15th century, reflecting a blend of Gothic and Renaissance architectural styles. The exterior remains incomplete, giving it a unique, austere appearance, while the interior boasts intricate frescoes, a beautifully carved wooden choir, and an impressive altar. Among its treasures is the Santo Anello, believed to be the wedding ring of the Virgin Mary.
