Church of Saints Faustinus and Jovita, Baroque church in Brescia, Italy

The Church of Saints Faustinus and Jovita features a facade adorned with Botticino marble decorations, completed in 1711 by Giuseppe Cantone.

The church's construction began in 1621, while the adjacent monastery dates back to the ninth century, established by Bishop Ramperto.

The interior contains frescoes by Tommaso Sandrino and Giandomenico Tiepolo, depicting religious scenes and the patron saints of the church.
