St. Johann im Dorf, Romanesque church in Bolzano, Italy

The single-nave church features a semi-circular apse, barrel vault ceiling, and a bell tower constructed by Lombard builders in the 14th century.

Bishop Salomon of Trento consecrated St. Johann im Dorf in 1180, making it the first religious structure in the oldest suburban settlement of Bolzano.

The interior walls display 14th-century frescoes depicting the lives of Saint John the Baptist and Saint John the Evangelist, painted by two distinct masters.

Located between residential buildings in Vicolo San Giovanni, the church welcomes visitors every Saturday from 10:00 to 12:30 for interior viewing.

The church frescoes combine artistic influences from both Nordic traditions and the Giotto school, displaying scenes of Mary's coronation and apostolic figures.
