Chiesa di San Girolamo, Catholic church in Cittanova, Italy
The San Girolamo church features nineteenth-century pseudo-baroque forms and underwent modifications to include two side naves with neoclassical interior design elements.
The construction of San Girolamo church began after the 1783 earthquake through the initiative of Maria Antonia Grimaldi Serra, daughter of Princess Maria Teresa Grimaldi.
The church holds numerous wooden sculptures, including a 1600s crucifix, an 1866 Pietà by Francesco Biangardi, and a set of 29 wooden statues created between 1821 and 1893.
The church maintains regular religious services and celebrates the feast of Saint Jerome each year on September 30 for the local parish community.
The remains of Princess Maria Teresa Grimaldi were transferred in 1793 from the Alcantarine fathers monastery to the Chapel of the Immaculate within the church.
