Fidenza

Fidenza (Parmigiano: Fidénsa, locally Bùragh) is a town and comune (municipality) in the province of Parma, in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy.

The town originates from a Roman camp (Fidentia) founded on the place where the Ananes Gauls had their settlement of Vicumvia (Latin: Victumviae or Victumulae).

In the same year, it became a commune, confirmed in 1162 by Emperor Frederick Barbarossa, who entrusted it to the Pallavicino family of Piacenza.

The three stone portals are garlanded with statuary, including two saints by Benedetto Antelami and bas-reliefs depicting the Histories of St Domninus.
