Pavia Cathedral
Pavia’s cathedral rebuilding began in 1488, replacing the Romanesque cathedrals of Santo Stefano and Santa Maria del Popolo. The diocesan museum documents Bramante’s presence on the construction site in August 1488 and attributes the design of the crypt, completed in 1492, to him.

Redactionele duiding
Editorial interpretation: The replacement of two earlier churches and the distinct history of the crypt offer a way to read the cathedral as a sequence of building campaigns. These records support specific phases rather than attributing every part of the present building to one architect.
Aanbeveling
Compare the building campaigns described by the municipality and diocesan museum when planning a visit. Consult the responsible institution for current access, especially to the crypt and individual interior areas.
