Ceiling of the Cathedral of Syracuse, Sicily, Italy. Its structure is originally a Greek doric temple, and for this reason it is included in a UNESCO World Heritage Site designated in 2005. The present cathedral was constructed by Saint Bishop Zosimo of Syracuse in the 7th century. The building was converted into a mosque in 878, then converted back after the Norman count Roger I of Sicily retook the city in 1086. The roof of the nave is of Norman origin, as well as the mosaics in the apses.
