Mantova Museo Urbano Diffuso

Mantova Museo Urbano Diffuso

The interior of the Rotonda is characterized by a sacred atmosphere, the viewer becomes instantly immersed in the Medieval times. Here we can admire the small apse behind the altar, decorated with a Christ on the cross dating to the 20th century, the work of Stefano L’Occaso. It must be kept in mind that in 1460 the church was supposed to be demolished, in the context of a plan that led to the erection of the Albertian church of St. Andrew. Also, in 1579 is was deconsecrated and incorporated in a series and home-workshops which prevented it from being seen and used.
