Baptistry

What is amazing about this monument is its octagonal shape. This was the first and only octagonal monument I have ever seen in my entire life. The Baptistery was constructed in the 12th century (next to the Cathedral). It was made completely of white marble and pink in the region. The inside is beautiful, with great frescoes and mosaics that adorn some walls. Its dome is incredible, with 15 stories from the Bible. The sculptures inside are also amazing. The building is of Romanesque and Gothic art.
