Basilica di San Zeno

Basilica di san Zeno and the adjacent Abbey tower and bell tower, form one of the most outstanding Romanic-style complexes in northern Italy. The façade stands out for the large rose window and the famous porch supported by two lions, sculpted towards the end of the XII century. The inside of the basilica is no less majestic with three large naves, a crypt, several frescoes and as a final treat, a table by Mantegna portraying ‘Mary on a throne with the Baby and the Saints’, a masterpiece of mid-XV century Italian art and a milestone of Italian art history.
