The Church of San Giovanni Battista is a Catholic place of worship with modernist architecture, located at Via Picelli 45 in Felegara, a hamlet of Medesano, in the province and diocese of Parma. It is the seat of a parish in the pastoral area of Pedemontana. HISTORY The original place of worship, dedicated to St. Iohannis, was built in the Middle Ages; the earliest evidence of its existence dates back to 1230, when the chapel was mentioned in the Capitulum seu Rotulus Decimarum of the Diocese of Parma. In 1564, the church was elevated to the status of an independent parish, but due to its poor structural condition, Bishop Giovanni Battista Castelli, during his apostolic visit in 1579, ordered its demolition and reconstruction or suppression. Construction of the new church began by 1627, and it was completed before 1714. The bell tower was erected in 1790. The bell tower was raised in 1920. In 1934, further radical renovations were undertaken on the church, designed by architect Moderanno Chiavelli. He expanded the building, adding two aisles to the 16th-century central nave and transforming the two 17th-century side chapels into the two branches of the transept, and gave it a new façade. This modernist place of worship was completed in 1938. In 1959, the interior was decorated according to a design by architect Marco Pellegri, with the arches, pillars, and apse covered in terracotta tiles by sculptor Mario Orlandini, who also created some panels, as well as the high altar and the marble pulpit. Between 2014 and 2016, the church underwent restoration work designed by architects Alberto Bordi, Sauro Rossi, and Marco Zarotti. The restoration work included the façades, roofs, and interiors, as well as the redevelopment of the presbytery and the resurfacing of the paving and churchyard.

"It still remains to be added," writes Sigfried Grän OFM in 'Noah, the builder of the ark and inventor of viticulture', "what we left out above in the summary of the Noah story. Noah not only survives the flood and, after his rescue, offers a burnt offering to the Creator. He also incidentally becomes the inventor of viticulture. (...) In ancient Israel, the vine was considered the noblest of all plants. To own a vineyard, to enjoy its fruits and to be able to rest in the peace of its shade was ... the epitome of a happy and blessed existence." (Source: "In the Land of the Lord.

In the Middle Ages, Fornovo was an important stop on the pilgrimage route to Monte Bardone, along the Via Francigena route, and its name is also linked to the famous battle fought in 1495 between the army of the Italian League and that of Charles VIII. Of interest to visitors are the 11th-century Romanesque parish church of Santa Maria Assunta, with its precious Antelami sculptures and the 13th-century marble slab; the 17th-century Villa Carona and the Vallezza oil well.

The charming Romanesque parish church, dedicated to St. Mary of the Assumption (11th century), shows numerous adaptations and reconstructions: the important façade, with a simple pointed roof, was originally a shelter and protection for pilgrims. The precious 13th century sculptures of the Antelamic school, almost randomly distributed over the façade, represent fragments of structures that, with the altar at the front, may have been inside, to decorate a pulpit or an ambo. A marble slab from the 13th century. Near the portal, a headless statue carries the signs of the pilgrimage: the saddlebags, the staff and the keys, symbolic access to the basilicas of Rome. Inside, it is still possible to recognize the original structure with three naves, with the narthex in front. The church is open to visitors every day from 8:00 to 12:00 and from 15:00 to 18:00.
