Santissima Trinità Church, Baroque church in Crema, Italy
Santissima Trinità Church is a baroque structure featuring two distinctive bell towers, one equipped with a clock and the other displaying a meridian marker. The building showcases ornate architectural details characteristic of the baroque period, with carefully proportioned facades and decorative elements throughout.
Construction of the church began in 1740 on land that had once been a vineyard given by French King Charles VIII to a religious order. This location choice reflected the historical connection between the site and its religious purpose that would develop over the following centuries.
The interior walls exhibit extensive fresco cycles by the Zuccari brothers, depicting scenes from both Old and New Testaments over 25 years.
A stone staircase built between 1723 and 1726 connects the lower piazza level to the church entrance. Visitors should note this staircase as a key orientation point when approaching the building from the square below.
The perspective gallery, designed by Andrea Pozzo, creates an architectural connection between the main church building and the adjacent monastery.
