Chiesa di San Giovanni Battista, Renaissance religious building in Reggio Emilia, Italy.
The Chiesa di San Giovanni Battista features architectural elements characteristic of 16th-century Italian ecclesiastical design within the urban landscape of Reggio Emilia.
The construction of this Catholic church commenced in 1545 and reached completion by 1550, marking a period of religious architectural development in the region.
The church maintains its role as a central religious institution within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Reggio Emilia-Guastalla, conducting regular services and ceremonies.
Located at Piazza San Giovanni 1, the church offers access to visitors interested in examining Renaissance religious architecture and participating in Catholic services.
The structure carries two distinct appellations, as locals refer to it as San Giovannino despite its formal dedication to John the Baptist.
