About

There is an unexploded World War II shell inside this cathedral, as well as a sculpted dog that determines your fate.

The La Cattedrale di San Lorenzo is a cathedral located in the city of Genoa, Italy. The cathedral was consecrated in 1118 but construction wasn't fully completed until the 17th century. It has only become more beautiful with age, and its striped exterior is undeniably eye-catching. The facade is a landmark feature of Genoa, and it's not hard to see why. The intricate details boast the same beauty as more popular sights in Italy such as the Duomo in Florence, but without all the tourists. Local legend holds that the facade can even determine the future of your love life.
