Church of Saint Mark the Evangelist, Romanesque church in central Brescia, Italy

The church features a stone portal with a rounded arch, decorated frieze of earthenware arches, and a rectangular window replacing the original medieval rosette.

The church originated in the late 13th century as a family chapel for the Avogadro family, who owned the adjacent Palazzo Avogadro in Brescia.

The interior space contains preserved frescoes and a notable canvas painting created by the Italian artist Pietro Marone.

Located at the end of via Laura Cereto, the church maintains regular opening hours and welcomes visitors interested in religious architecture.

The building survived World War II bombing raids, though sustaining damage, and retains its original Romanesque structural elements from the 13th century.
