|
In Piazza Mantegna, in the center of Mantua, stands the church of Sant'Andrea, a masterpiece of Early Renaissance architecture built by Leon Battista Alberti in 1472-94, with a transept and choir of 1600, and a dome of 1782. The white marble facade, in the style of a classical temple, has beside it the earlier Gothic tower of red brick (1413). The interior, with its massive barrel vault, is of imposing effect.
