The Cathedral of St. Tryphon. The original church is from the VIII century, according to the annals of Constantine Porfirogenet (the Byzantine czar). A new church is built in 1166 (on the picture). The cathedral was seriously damaged and rebuilt after the earthquake (1667). The second earthquake from 1979 also damaged the cathedral and the careful restoration of parts of its interior has not been completed to the present day.
