San Romano, Former church near Cathedral Square, Ferrara, Italy.

The San Romano building exhibits Gothic architectural elements with a stone facade, large windows, and intricate decorative patterns throughout its exterior structure.

Built in 1232 as a Franciscan monastery, the structure underwent significant modifications during the Erculean Addition project under Ercole I d'Este's leadership.

The Cathedral Museum within San Romano displays a collection of religious art, including works by Cosmè Tura and tapestries depicting Ferrara's patron saints.

Visitors can access the museum Tuesday through Sunday, with guided tours available that explain the architectural evolution and artistic elements of the structure.

The baroque cenotaph of military commander Ghiron Francesco Villa remains in the building, featuring detailed bas-reliefs and a statue by Emanuel Tesauro.
