San Gennaro, Capannori, 12th-century parish church in San Gennaro, Capannori, Italy.

The three-nave church features ornate capitals, marble decorations, and a combination of medieval architecture with 18th-century modifications in the apse section.

First documented in 980, the church underwent reconstruction in the 12th century at a strategic location between the Lucca plain and Valdinievole.

The church contains a marble pulpit from 1162 by Maestro Filippo and numerous architectural elements representing Romanesque religious art.

The church opens on Saturdays from 10 AM to 6 PM and Sundays from 11 AM to 6 PM, with group visits arranged through Don Cyprien.

The church houses a terracotta statue of Archangel Gabriel, attributed to Leonardo da Vinci during his studies of hydraulic engineering in the area.
