Piacenza Cathedral (Italian: Duomo di Piacenza) is a Roman Catholic church in Piacenza (Emilia-Romagna, Italy) dedicated to Saint Justina of Padua and the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Saint Justina is also the patron saint of the city. The cathedral is located in the city center, on Piazza Duomo. The church is the seat of the Diocese of Piacenza-Bobbio.

Piacenza is a city full of beautiful squares, all lively and crowded. On this square are the cathedral and the bishop's palace.

Inside the church, it is worth paying attention to the frescoes by Gavasetti and Robert de Longe. Interestingly, some of them were transferred to the Municipal Gallery in Piacenza.

The Basilica di Sant Antonino is another beautiful church located in the historic center of Piacenza. This beautiful building with many interesting features is located in Piazza Sant’Antonino, a short walk from the cathedral and Palazzo Gotico. The Basilica di Sant Antonino was built in 1350 in the Gothic style.

Definitely worth it, there is a lot to explore, plan about 2 hours

This early Christian basilica was renovated in the 11th century and has an interesting octagonal tower of 40 m high. Also note the roof lanterns and the Gothic porch, which is called Paradise. (1350)

Cathedral, mother church of the Diocese of Piacenza-Bobbio, built in two phases, between 1122 and 1150 and 1202 and 1235 (or between 1207 and 1250 according to other sources) in Romanesque style with the addition of Gothic elements in the second phase. The design of the building is said to have been the work of Niccolò, with whom Wiligelmo is also said to have collaborated. The interior has a dome painted in the seventeenth century by Morazzone and Guercino. The presbytery and choir were painted towards the end of the sixteenth century by Camillo Procaccini and Ludovico Carracci: most of their works were moved from their original location during nineteenth-century restorations. Under the belfry with four lancets there is an iron cage built by Ludovico il Moro in 1495, a kind of deterrent for the criminals of that time.
