Interior
While the exterior of the cathedral is light, ornate and inspiring, interior seems to be almost ascetic and rather dark.
Floor in the cathedral was designed by Pellegrino Tibaldi and made in 1584 - 1940. It is made from the white Candoglia marble with Varenna black marble and Arzo red marble.
The giant cathedral holds many values. To the believers most precios is The Holy Nail, reportedly from the True Cross. It hangs over the altar and is illuminated with red light.
