Chiesa di San Rocco, Renaissance church in Riva di Solto, Italy.

The chiesa di San Rocco is a church building that faces directly onto the street in Riva di Solto, without a forecourt. Its gabled facade has three arched openings separated by stone columns with bases and capitals; the central opening is the main entrance, and the architrave bears the date 1630. Inside, a single nave is divided by pilasters into two bays, with a barrel vault and a raised presbytery with an apse.

The church was built after 1530, funded by testamentary bequests documented from 1526, and dedicated to Saint Roch as protector of plague victims after the town was struck by plague; it also served as a burial place for plague dead. A 1575 pastoral visit by Carlo Borromeo records a church closed by a simple wooden grille topped by a lunette. The interior was renovated in the 18th century, with vault paintings of angels forming a false architecture, and the exterior was altered after construction.

The church is dedicated to Saint Roch, a protector saint venerated during the Renaissance in this lakeside community. His presence in the artwork reflects the spiritual focus of local people during the period when the building took shape.

The church faces directly onto the street with no forecourt, so access is from the road. The single nave gives a clear view from the entrance to the raised presbytery, reached by two steps. Light enters through the rectangular opening above the portal and the three arched openings of the facade.

The altarpiece is a signed early work by Enea Salmeggia, dated 1589, showing the Pietà with Saints Roch and Sebastian. Because it carries the painter's own signature and date, it helps document the beginnings of the Bergamasque artist's career. The single altar of the church holds this painting.
