Beautiful church and highly evocative because of the story behind its dedication to Saint Nicholas, which is very much part of Bari's identity.

A charming Romanesque Church in the heart of the old city, Cattedrale di San Sabino is definitely worth a look if your religious or not. Built over the ruins of the Imperial Byzantine cathedral destroyed in 1156 by William I 'Wicked' of Sicily, the building is mostly 12-13 century in construction and holds artistic treasures that span the cities long and at times complex past. Free (as most cathedrals in Italy are), and a great way to stay out of the rain (if you're visiting offseason). please allow 20-40 mins, if you just wish to see the cathedral on its own.
