The Collegiata di Sant'Agata in Santhià, a municipality in the province of Vercelli, Piedmont, is an impressive church located in the central Piazza Roma, not far from the town hall. Although the original 12th century Romanesque building has now disappeared, remains of the northern exterior, semi-circular apse and stone bell tower still remain. The current church, designed by architect Giuseppe Talucchi, was built between 1836 and 1839 in a neoclassical style. The facade is characterized by a large pronao, supported by six columns, with vaults painted by artist Luigi Hartmann. Inside is a valuable polittico by Gerolamo Giovenone.
