San Quintino, Parma

The San Quintino is a Renaissance style, Roman Catholic church located at Strada XXII Luglio number 21, near the intersection with Borgo Scacchini, in Parma, Italy.

First documentation of the church or oratory at the site, dates to 833, when the property was outside the city walls.

Towards the 12th century the church was rebuilt and affiliated with a Vallombrosan Benedictine order monastery.

The sacristy corridor, a fragment of a capital and a stone door with Romanesque architecture decorations date to this period.

[1][2] Many of the fine artworks once in the church, including altarpieces by Giovanni Lanfranco, a Saints Benedict and Quentin; and Giuseppe Ribera, an Assumption of the Virgin; and by Francesco Marmitta, a Saint Benedict and Quentin and Virgin: all were looted by French troops during the Revolutionary wars.
