Revision as of 16:11, 19 March 2008 by Polylerus (talk | contribs) (commons)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)The Basilica of San Gaudenzio is a church in Novara, Piedmont, northern Italy. It is the highest point in the city. It is dedicated to Gaudentius of Novara, first Christian bishop of the city.
It was built between 1577 and 1690 following the destruction of the old Basilica, ordered by emperor Charles V.
The Basilica itself was built by Pellegrino Tibaldi; however, the monumental cupola was designed by Antonelli (who also built the Mole Antonelliana in Torino).
