San Nicolò, Renaissance church in Carpi, Italy.

The San Nicolò church features classical Renaissance elements with symmetrical proportions and precise architectural details throughout its stone facade and interior spaces.

Architect Baldassare Peruzzi designed this religious structure in 1494, establishing it as part of a larger complex that includes a monastery and portico.

The church maintains regular Catholic services while representing an important example of Renaissance architectural principles in the Modena region of Italy.

Following the 2012 earthquake damage, the church underwent extensive restoration work combining traditional methods with modern engineering solutions for structural reinforcement.

The building incorporates specialized earthquake protection systems, including dome isolation technology and shape-memory alloy devices in its supporting structure.
