Historic Religious Sites
Parma’s religious heritage spans from the Romanesque grandeur of the 12th-century Cathedral and pink-marble Baptistery to the High Renaissance masterpieces of Santa Maria della Steccata. This collection highlights the artistic legacy of Correggio and Parmigianino, found within the domes and vaults of the city's basilicas. Beyond the urban center, the list includes the Cistercian Abbey of Valserena—the literary inspiration for Stendhal’s 'The Charterhouse of Parma'—and the significant pilgrimage stop of Fidenza Cathedral, renowned for its intricate medieval facade carvings.
