San Giovanni Battista, Romanesque church in Riomaggiore, Italy.
The San Giovanni Battista church stands prominently in grey stone, featuring rounded arches and robust structural elements characteristic of Romanesque architecture.
Built in 1340, this religious structure has maintained its position as a central place of worship throughout centuries of Riomaggiore's development.
The church holds regular Catholic services and functions as a gathering space for local festivals, maintaining religious traditions in the Cinque Terre region.
Located on the upper part of Riomaggiore's main street, the church provides a natural stopping point when exploring the village's ascending pathways.
The grey stone facade of San Giovanni Battista creates a strong visual contrast with the surrounding multicolored residential buildings of Riomaggiore.
