San Donato, Romanesque church in Civita di Bagnoregio, Italy.

San Donato is a church on Piazza San Donato in Civita di Bagnoregio, facing the old communal palace. It has a three-nave plan, a Renaissance facade with a central portal of 1524 and two side portals of 1547, and a tower bell tower with two Etruscan basalt sarcophagi built into its base.

The church was originally built in the 5th century and served as the seat of the Diocese of Bagnoregio for centuries. The 1695 earthquake caused major damage, prompting the bishop to move his residence and functions to the nearby town below.

The church faces the old communal palace on Piazza San Donato, the historic centre of Civita's town plan. The two Etruscan basalt sarcophagi are built into the base of the tower bell tower, not the interior. Inside are a fresco from the school of Pinturicchio and a 15th-century wooden crucifix from the school of Donatello.

The church stands on Piazza San Donato, facing the former communal palace at the heart of Civita's historic layout. Access to Civita is on foot only, over the pedestrian bridge from Bagnoregio, and the climb through the village is steep in places and slippery after rain. Comfortable shoes help.

The church became an Italian national monument in 1940. Its bell tower incorporates two Etruscan sarcophagi made of basalt stone at its base, reused as building material.
