Beautiful

Mar 2020

We love the Italian cathedrals and this is no exception. Beautiful outside and inside the decoration is breathtaking. From the plaza are sone wonderful views of Sassi. All in all this has been one of our favourite places in Italy so far during our road trip

Views are nice from the square, as you can see a large area of old Matera with all the rooftops, stairs, winding streets.

After visiting the renovated Duomo you can enjoy an aperitif in a nearby bar with soft jazz music and a nice view

More like a Piazzetta than a Piazza.

Jul 2019

Italians have a diminutive suffix for small squares. Given the size of the Piazza Duomo, I would call it a Piazzetta rather than a Piazza. In addition, it is filled with cars during the day. Its only obvious advantage is not the view of the Cathedral, which is so-so , but the view of the city from the observation platform. Not the best in Matera. but it is noteworthy.

Fantastic view

Nov 2023 • Couples

The square itself is not too nice or large but it’s a must see site. It’s located on the highest point of the town, so the view is breathtaking. We enjoyed it. Don’t miss the cathedral either, of course.

Matera's highest square with terrific views

Sept 2023 • Family

The Matera Cathedral sits on the highest hill and you'll need medium hard incline to reach it. In front of it is a small square with several bars and a viewing terrace with great views.

Busy Square

Jul 2023 • Couples

This is a busy square in front of the Duomo. There are many cafes and restaurants. Streets leaving from here can take you to many of the attractions in the city. There are also places that offer views of the surrounding area.
