The Grand Mother of God Co-Cathedral is one of the most iconic symbols of modern Taranto, representing a perfect blend of contemporary architecture and spirituality. Designed by architect Gio Ponti and inaugurated in 1970, the co-cathedral was born within the context of the urban development of the Borgo Nuovo, offering a new religious reference point for the city.

The Sant'Eligio Pier is a tourist port nestled between the sparkling waters of the Great Sea and the Small Sea, in the heart of the Old Town of the city of Taranto.
