Tips

The Church of Santa Croce, of ancient Romanesque origins, stands along the route of the ancient Via Francigena. The building was built in 1210, while the year of consecration in 1222, with an architectural structure with three naves.
The building underwent numerous modifications: it was first raised and then covered with a dome, finally enriched by a notable chapel called San Giuseppe, thus assuming its current appearance. Traces of the origins can be found in the capitals of the pillars of the three naves, which show purely medieval subjects and are decorative parts of great value. The author is among the followers of the masters who worked on the construction site of the Cathedral of Parma.
The central nave is frescoed by Giovanni Maria Conti della Camera (around 1635) as is the Chapel of San Giuseppe where you can also admire a wooden group made by Angelo Fontana in the second half of the 18th century. The church also houses altarpieces and works of art from the Baroque period.
