Basilica di Santa Maria di Campagna, Minor basilica in Piacenza, Italy.
The basilica features an octagonal dome atop a Greek-cross plan structure, with a geometric facade and detailed Renaissance architectural elements throughout the building.
Construction of the basilica occurred between 1522 and 1528 under architect Alessio Tramello, replacing an earlier sanctuary dedicated to Santa Maria di Campagnola.
The interior holds frescoes by Giovanni Antonio Sacchi depicting biblical figures, along with works by artists Camillo Procaccini and Bernardino Gatti in various chapels.
Visitors can access the basilica from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 3:30 PM to 7:00 PM, with modified hours during August and dome access on weekends.
The dome contains a complete cycle of Renaissance frescoes showing evangelists in the spandrels and includes characters wearing Turkish attire in the Chapel of the Magi.
