Santa Maria di Canepanova is a Renaissance-style Roman Catholic church located in central Pavia, region of Lombardy, Italy.

[2][3] The church is divided into a cubic volume set on a square plan, on which rest an octagonal dome and four small bell towers at the corners.

Inside, the central plan space is generated by the eight sides of the dome projected within the square perimeter of the church; the figure thus inscribed creates a succession of niches for each of the faces of the octagon.

In the sails in which the second dome that covers the main altar is set, eight sibyls arranged in pairs, painted by Guglielmo Caccia, are represented.

On the altar of the chapel of Saint Anne there is the canvas attributed to Gianbattista Tassinari, a painter from Pavia of the early seventeenth century.

Originally the Pavese nobles Jacopo Menocchio and his nephew Enrico were buried in the chapel, as can be seen from the mural inscriptions on the side walls.

[8] Behind the choir of the church, to the east of the same, a small building with a portico in the lower part and open above into a loggia is still preserved.

The building is divided into two orders: the first has a portico, covered by rib vaults, has columns and capitals of the late Gothic type in granite, while higher up there are figures of half-length angels, with large wings and hands intertwined on the chest.
