San Matteo, Renaissance church in Nocera Inferiore, Italy.
The San Matteo church stands at the center of Nocera Inferiore, featuring architectural elements that reflect the Renaissance period's emphasis on symmetry and proportion.
The church was constructed on the site of an ancient temple dedicated to Janus, with the first documented mention of San Matteo dating back to 985.
The church serves as the starting point for the Good Friday procession, where veiled women follow statues through the streets of Nocera Inferiore.
The church reopened in 2000 after extensive renovations following structural damage caused by the earthquake of 1980.
Archaeological findings reveal that the church site contains layers of history, including a Roman villa from the 2nd century BC and an ancient necropolis.
