It is a large Baroque building with a Latin cross plan. The imposing façade is characterized by columns and decorated with sculptures depicting (from right to left): Santa Caterina d’Alessandria, San Zeno, Sant’Annone, and Santa Barbara. Above the window is the communal coat of arms: a rampant lion with two keys and three lilies.

The dome, with its refined design, crowns the basilica, giving it a harmonious appearance. It is a typical example of the architectural work of the Lonato architect Paolo Soratini (1680–1762).

The interior contains thirteen altars, while the main altar is complemented by an exceptional altarpiece, completed in 1752 by the Veronese painter Giambettino Cignaroli, depicting the Sermon of Saint John the Baptist.

In the sacristy, the Resurrection triptych, signed by Bernardino Licinio and dated 1528, is preserved. Religious services: Saturday at 6:30 p.m. - Sunday at 8:00 a.m., 10:15 a.m., 11:30 a.m., and 6:30 p.m.
