Chiesa di San Vincenzo

It is defined as the pantheon of the Estensi so for a tourist tour it would be worth visiting, it is a pity that it is not always open, now it is the seat of the parish Masses of San Biagio. It is an ancient church, very large and with several paintings and a very beautiful mausoleum room with the tombs of the dukes of Modena.

The church of the Este family. It still preserves its remains in the internal funeral chapel. Duke Francesco V and his wife are missing, in fact there are 2 "empty seats". The most important work is a painting by Guercino, which was stolen and consequently found and returned to its place recently. We found a girl, Elena, who guided us and told the story behind the works. We entered by chance and we were really lucky ;-)

Simple facade with several columns as the predominant element of the decoration and some sculpture.

San Vincenzo is among the most beautiful churches in Modena. Full of history, art and faith !!! The intertwining of tales of important characters from the history of Modena and the human genius in a church that also tells a lot about faith and hope

Don Claudio is always a force
