Quake: Cracks in Urbino Duomo

(ANSA) - Urbino, August 24 - Wednesday's 6.0-magnitude quake in the central Apennines caused small cracks to appear in the Duomo of Urbino, one of the glories of that northern Marche Renaissance town. The cathedral, which has been cordoned off, was damaged by a 1997 tremor which caused some of the facade's statues to collapse. It was repaired.
    No damage was reported Wednesday to Palazzo Ducale, another of the high points of the Renaissance in Urbino.
