Consecrated in 1120 by Callistus II, Volterra Cathedral continued to grow in size throughout the centuries. Enlarged by Andrea Pisano in 1254, it had its campanile rebuilt in 1493, and was remodelled again in 1576. The cathedral is now home to some magnificent examples of Italian art and sculpture. Among the collection is 'Annunciation' by Luca Signorelli, 'Reliquary of Sant'Ottaviano' by Raffaele Cioli and a stunning marble ciborium, for the reservation of the Eucharist by Mino da FiƩsole.
