Monaco's Cathedral MONACO : MONACO Tourism

Built with white stones from La Turbie in 1875, this Roman-Byzantine style construction shelters the tombs of the deceased Princes. As for the interior decoration one may especially admire an altarpiece (retable) painted in 1500 by Louis Brea, a native of Nice, as well as the high altar and the Episcopal throne made of white marble from Carrara.
Pontifical Services are held during the main liturgical celebrations, accompanied by a four keyboard Grand Organ, inaugurated in 1976; its magnificence permits remarkable spiritual concerts to be organised. From September to June, every Sunday at 10 am, Mass is sung by the "Petits Chanteurs de Monaco" and by the "Maîtrise de la Cathédrale".
