San Martino, Baroque church in Mantua, Italy

The San Martino church exhibits a vertical facade adorned with three niches containing 18th-century stucco statues of Saint Martin and Saints Peter and Paul.

The initial church, documented in 1127, belonged to the Benedictine Abbey of Polirone before undergoing substantial reconstruction from 1680 to 1693 by Frans Geffels.

The church walls display numerous paintings of local saints and notable citizens, including Blessed Osanna Andreasi and Saint Aloysius Gonzaga by Luigi Niccolini.

Located on Via Pomponazzo, 22 in Mantua, the church contains multiple artworks transferred during the Napoleonic period, including works by Giovanni Francesco Tura.

The interior decoration features extensive stucco work in Michele Costa's style, complemented by a collection of paintings depicting religious and historical Mantuan figures.
