Built in the 13th century by the Augustinians, the interior of this church was refurbished in the Renaissance style in the 15th century, with the addition of a portico on the left side. The building has many Renaissance paintings, especially in the Bentivoglio Chapel, which is decorated with frescoes by Lorenzo Costa. In the adjacent oratory of Santa Cecilia (access from Via Zamboni 15), frescoes by Amico Aspertini from the 16th century can also be admired.

Une belle église gothique bien garnie de peintures italiennes de la Renaissance. Elle mérite très bien faire partie de votre circuit de visites des églises et monuments de Bologne.

Encore une très belle église aux superbes peintures. Ne pas rater le discret oratoire Santa Cecilia qui referme de sublimes fresques.
