Amalfi Cathedral, Arsenale and Fountain

Why go

The cathedral staircase and Chiostro del Paradiso reveal layers of Amalfi’s religious history. The Arsenale di Amalfi recalls the town’s maritime past, while Fontana di Sant'Andrea adds a Baroque detail to Piazza Duomo. Visit them as a flexible cluster rather than a fixed route, leaving time for the cathedral spaces that are open on the day.

Useful to know

• Allow extra time for the cathedral complex before visiting the Arsenal and fountain.
• Check which cathedral spaces are open if the crypt or cloister is a priority.
