San Severo, Church building in Perugia, Italy.

San Severo displays neoclassical architecture with clean lines and proportionate forms, featuring classical elements such as columns, pediments, and symmetrical facades characteristic of 18th-century religious buildings.

The present church was built in 1758 beside the older Camaldolese church, founded in the era of Saint Romuald (10th–11th centuries), whose small apses and pointed niche survive under the former convent. Tradition holds that the first church stood on a pagan temple to the sun god, the likely origin of the district's name. Between the 13th and 16th centuries, until 1520, it was a manual member of the Camaldolese monastery of Sansepolcro. It was first rebuilt in the 15th century with three bays.

The fresco of the Trinity and Saints by Raphael and Perugino (1505–1521) once stood on the second altar on the left of the 15th-century three-bay church. It is now displayed alone in a rectangular room adjoining the church, separate from the present building.

The church stands at 493 m on Piazza Raffaello in Porta Sole, the highest part of Perugia, so the approach is uphill. The Raphael and Perugino fresco is not inside the church itself but in a separate rectangular room next to it, reached from the same square. Look for the remains of the older Camaldolese church, small apses and a pointed niche, in the former convent.

The Raphael and Perugino fresco of the Trinity and Saints (1505–1521) once stood on the second altar on the left of the old three-bay church. It is now detached and displayed alone in a rectangular room adjoining the church, so visitors see it separately from the nave.
