Santa Maria della Steccata

Santa Maria della Steccata
Parma, Italy (IT)
The church of Santa Maria della Steccata is a good example of Renaissance architecture in Parma. It was built between 1521 and 1539 to a design by unknown architect and executed by Bernardino and Giovanni Francesco Zaccagni who had shown that they were familiar with and knew how to interpret designs rules set out by Bramante. Antonio da Sangallo il Giovane, sent to Parma by Pope Clement VII in 1526 to examine the defensive system, left a plan for the dome and the completion of the building.
