Ragusa Ibla, Duomo di San Giorgio - a photo on Flickriver

            The Cathedral of San Giorgio di Ragusa (1740) is one of the most beautiful late-Baroque monuments among those in the city.

Designed by the architect Rosario Gagliardi, it dominates the panorama of Ibla with its neoclassical dome.

Its baroque façade and its imposing scenic staircase were the backdrop to several scenes of the TV series Inspector Montalbano. 

Since 2002 it has been part of the Unesco serial site: Late Baroque cities of the Val di Noto. 

One of the most impressive architectural elements of the church is its neoclassical dome. 

Built in 1820, it is 43 meters high and supported by sixteen columns. When designing the Cathedral of San Giorgio, Rosario Gagliardi oriented the church a little further to the left of the square in front so that the dome was clearly visible. 

To enhance the scenography of the Ragusa Cathedral is a majestic staircase also designed by Gagliardi. The imposing cast iron gate dates back to 1890 and was created by Angelo Paradiso of Acireale. It is made up of twenty-eight pillars with a quadrangular base decorated on both sides with circular medallions. Here the symbols of Saint George are depicted in high relief: the shield with the cross, the armour, the spear and the drum.

Il Duomo di San Giorgio di Ragusa (1740) è uno dei monumenti tardo-barocchi più belli tra quelli presenti in città.

Progettato dall’architetto Rosario Gagliardi domina, con la sua cupola neoclassica, il panorama di Ibla.

Il suo prospetto barocco e la sua imponente scalinata scenografica hanno fatto da sfondo a diverse scene della serie tv Il Commissario Montalbano. 

Dal 2002 fa parte del sito seriale Unesco: Città tardo barocche del Val di Noto. 

Uno degli elementi architettonici più imponenti della chiesa è la sua cupola neoclassica. 

Realizzata nel 1820 è alta 43 metri ed è sostenuta da sedici colonne. Nel progettare il Duomo di San Giorgio, Rosario Gagliardi orientò la chiesa un po’ più a sinistra della piazza antistante in modo che la cupola fosse ben visibile. 

Ad esaltare la scenografia del Duomo di Ragusa è una maestosa scalinata disegnata sempre da Gagliardi,   L’imponente cancellata in ghisa è invece del 1890 e realizzata da Angelo Paradiso di Acireale. È formata da ventotto pilastri a base quadrangolare decorati su entrambi i lati da medaglioni circolari. Qui sono raffigurati in altorilievo i simboli di San Giorgio: lo scudo con la croce, la corazza, la lancia e il tamburo.
