Begun in 1067, it features the largest dome in the Occident built in the time between the erection of the Hagia Sophia and the Florence Duomo. The oval dome, being 21.0 m long and 16.9 m wide, was completed in 1227 on the remains of Roman walls, which are still visible. The dome is also notable for its rare decagonal structure.
