Description
To the southeast of the cathedral stands the 16th century church of San Prospero, on the site of an earlier Romanesque building. On the facade (rebuilt 1748) are six marble lions from the original building. The church has frescoes, including a "Last Judgment" by Camillo Procaccini (1585-89), choir-stalls of 1546 with intarsio decoration, and a copy of the "Birth of Christ" (1528) by Correggio. Adjoining the church is a fine octagonal campanile.
