San Leonardo, Catholic church in Lower Bergamo, Italy
The San Leonardo church stands at the intersection of Via XX Settembre and Via Sant'Alessandro, featuring a facade divided by pilasters and a 14th-century portal.
The original church, built near ancient temples dedicated to Pluto and Bacchus, received its dedication to Saint Leonard in 1017 and underwent reconstruction after a fire in 1310.
The church interior contains a single nave with multiple altars dedicated to different saints and displays paintings by Antonio Cifrondi from the late 1600s.
Located at Largo Rezzara, the church marks the beginning of the historic Borgo San Leonardo district, where five major streets converge into a single square.
A Marian fresco discovered in 1613 became a focal point of local devotion, leading to a decree from the Roman Sacred Congregation for its preservation.
