San Pancrazio, Baroque church in Genoa, Italy

San Pancrazio is a small church on the piazza of the same name in Genoa's Maddalena quarter, near via Fossatello and via di Sottoripa. Its semicircular facade has four pilasters with leafy capitals and three semicircular windows above. Inside is a single hall with pilastered walls, topped by a tall dome; the apse frescoes by Giacomo Antonio Boni show the saint carried to heaven by angels.

A church dedicated to Saint Pancras is first documented in 1023, when Bishop Landolfo II named it as bordering San Marcellino. A brief of Clement VIII in 1593 assigned it as a family parish to the Calvi and Pallavicini. Destroyed in the 1684 naval bombardment by Louis XIV's fleet, it was rebuilt in late Baroque form to a design by Antonio Maria Ricca, damaged again by aerial bombing in World War II and restored after the war.

Since 1976 the church has been run by the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, which holds its religious services here; the Order's cross stands above the portal. In the rooms next to the church are the Order's Genoese delegation and, since 1993, its specialist outpatient clinic, where thousands of medical visits take place each year.

The church stands on Piazza San Pancrazio in the Maddalena quarter of Genoa's historic centre, a short walk from via Fossatello and via di Sottoripa. The Delegation of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta and its specialist outpatient clinic occupy the rooms next to the church, so parts of the building may be in use during visits.

The building holds the status of Italian national heritage, which highlights its special architectural value. This official recognition sets it apart among the many religious structures in Genoa.
