Basilica di Sant'Antonino, Minor basilica in Piacenza, Italy.

The basilica features an octagonal tower, transepts, and a distinctive Latin cross layout with northern and southern entrances facing the city center.

Built between 350 and 375 under Bishop San Vittore, the basilica underwent significant reconstruction in 1004 when Bishop Sigifredo added the tower and transepts.

The basilica holds the remains of Saint Antoninus and Saint Victor beneath the main altar, making it a central religious site for Piacenza residents.

Religious services occur daily at 10:00 AM, with additional masses at 11:30 AM on Sundays and special ceremonies during festivals at 8:30 PM.

The church archives maintain a collection of parchments dating from the 7th to 14th centuries, documenting regional medieval history.
