San Giorgio

San Giorgio, Baroque church in Salerno, Italy.

San Giorgio is a baroque church in Salerno featuring an ornate facade with curved forms, symmetrical designs, and intricate stone details throughout. The interior continues these design principles with elaborate decoration and balanced proportions.

The church was designed by Ferdinando Sanfelice in the first half of the 18th century and reflects characteristics of the Neapolitan Baroque movement. This architectural period shaped religious and civic buildings throughout southern Italy.

The church holds a 1675 Passion cycle by Angelo Solimena in the choir vault and a Paradise in the dome; in the chapel of Saints Tecla, Archelaa and Susanna hang three panels by his son Francesco Solimena. Andrea Sabatini's Madonna and Child with Saints and a Praying Nun dates from 1523, and Giacinto De Popoli painted three works in 1669.

The building is accessed from Via San Giorgio and is typically open during morning and afternoon hours. Check opening times before visiting, as religious services may occasionally affect public access.

Under the present floor, near the entrance, restorers found the frescoed apse of the original church, oriented the opposite way: the first entrance faced west. Its braid patterns and lower row of saints date it before 1071. A marble pluteus of the same era, carved with a cross inside a circle, is now in the Diocesan Museum of Salerno.
