San Pietro in Monastero, Pre-Romanesque church in Gazzo Veronese, Italy

San Pietro in Monastero features a Latin cross layout with a single nave extending 19 meters and blind arcades on its facade.

The church first appeared in written records through a papal bull issued by Eugene III in 1145, documenting it as Sancti Petri in Monasterio.

Roman marble elements adorn the exterior walls, including a funeral stone and a stele that connects to local folklore about the devil.

The church stands near the Tione River banks, maintaining its original structure with modifications from the 16th century still visible today.

The tower, positioned at the intersection of nave and transept, served as a watchtower along the ancient Via Claudia Augusta.
