Basilica di San Petronio
Latest update: 26 February 2022
The Basilica di San Petronio is one of the finest examples of the Italian Gothic architectural style. Its most attractive features lie within its cavernous interior which is officially the fourth largest of any church in Italy, while its facade has never been finished.
That large yet incomplete facade looks out on to Piazza Maggiore, the main square in Bologna, the capital city of Emilia Romagna. |
