San Marcellino, Baroque church in Cremona, Italy

The church features a facade with white marble Corinthian pilasters, two brick wall niches, and a Serlian window with a heraldic shield below.

Bishop Cesare Speciano commissioned architect Francesco Bigallo to construct San Marcellino in 1602, with the Jesuits later completing the interior decoration.

The interior houses numerous artworks, including paintings by Gervasio Gatti, Luigi Miradori, Angelo Massarotti, and sculptures by Giacomo Bertesi.

San Marcellino stands at Via Amilcare Ponchielli 8 in Cremona, containing a single nave with side chapels decorated in white and gold stucco details.

The church preserves a wooden altar frame by Bertesi depicting Saint Marcellinus and Saint Peter baptizing a jail warden's daughter, painted by Gatti in 1604.
