The medieval double-sloped façade has been the subject of numerous alterations carried out over the centuries. In the aftermath of the devastations inflicted during the Turkish occupation of 1480, the great 16-ray rosette was built with fine Gothic circular openings converging at the center, according to the canons of Gothic-Arab art. In 1674 the Baroque portal was added, composed of two half-fluted columns on each side supporting the architrave with the coat of arms of the archbishop Gabriel Adarzo de Santander, supported by two angels. On the sides of the façade there are two single windows.nAnother minor portal is on the left side of the basilica; It was built in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth century by Nicolò Fernando by the will of Archbishop Serafino da Squillace who had his figure sculpted on the structure.
