The Basilica of San Nicolò in Pietra Ligure is a beautiful Romanesque-style church that graces the heart of the town. It overlooks the main square and is one of the most beautiful churches in the entire Riviera di Ponente.

The basilica has a majestic vault that is 27.25 m long and 23.50 m wide. Its interior is decorated with magnificent frescoes and sculptures created by some of the best artists of the time.

The architectural sophistication of the Basilica di San Nicolò is evident in the elaborate stucco decorations of the altars and the imposing statues that decorate the spacious interior. Its imposing structure and size give it an air of calm and awe, making it not only a place of worship but also a masterpiece of Romanesque architecture.

A visit to the Basilica di San Nicolò offers a unique opportunity to take a look into the past and appreciate the intact historical beauty engraved in every corner of the building. The church is a jewel in the crown of Pietra Ligure, ideal for both spiritual devotees and lovers of architectural art, and is a must for your visit. (from italian-riviera.com)
