Chiesa di San Giacomo, Former church and Italian national heritage in Ferrara, Italy.

The Chiesa di San Giacomo displays Romanesque architecture with rounded arches, robust structural elements, and a circular presbytery featuring a central altar.

Constructed in 1450, the church underwent transformations throughout centuries, shifting from a religious structure to serve new purposes in the urban landscape.

Located near Castello Estense at coordinates 44.832897, 11.619583, the structure maintains its original exterior while functioning as a contemporary movie theater.

The renovation project features a sculptural roof resembling traditional vaulted shapes, with specialized brickwork similar to the Palazzo dei Diamanti patterns.
