The first time I visited the Otranto Cathedral, I was surprised by its small size. Yet the mosaic work on the floor is so enchanting that I had a hard time leaving. My then 12 yr old daughter was just as transfixed. The floor mosaic was created between 1163 and 1165. It is one of the most important examples of 12th-century art, and features the Tree of Life growing and branching out into aisles, apses and presbytery to the theological itinerary of salvation, from original sin to redemption. It also mirrors the culture of inclusion that thrived in Otranto in the 12th century, as this crucial hub of maritime trade connected East and West. Viale Rocamatura, 73028 Otranto.

Don't miss: -The mosaic running the whole length of the nave, sanctuary and apse shows scenes from the Old Testament and chivalric cycles, as well as figures from medieval bestiaries, arranged alongside a 'tree of life', showing human experience from the Fall to salvation. -Crypt -Martyrs of Otranto
