Destroyed in a siege, it was rebuilt during the reign of Mariano II. Of the original structure, only the bases of the apse and bell tower remain, along with the Chapel of the Remedy, which houses some medieval sculptures. In 1733, the 13th-century Gothic Cathedral was demolished to make way for a Baroque one. The Chapel of the Archives dates back to the 17th-century reconstruction. The relics of Saint Archelaus are kept inside.
