Chiesa dei Santi Zenone e Urbano

Historic monument, Church

Soave-East Veronese

The first church dedicated to Saints Zenon and Urban was built in late Romanesque style in the second half of the 15th century at the foot of Mount Fratta, in a different location from the current one. It was consecrated in 1494 and in 1525 it was established as a rectory.
In the 19th century, it became necessary to enlarge the building due to a demographic increase; the new church, in neoclassical style, was built with the recovered materials of the old one that was demolished.

The façade is characterized by two pairs of Corinthian semi-columns that frame the portal, topped by a tympanum which in turn is supported by two molded corbels. On either side of the portal, inserted between the pairs of semi-columns, two niches house the statues of the patron saints. The tympanum, decorated with a sawtooth frame, features a small stone rose window in the center.

The interior of the building is a single nave, with four side altars. The projecting apse is semicircular in structure.
Along the sides of the nave, there are four side chapels, each with minor altars: the altars of St. Anthony and the Madonna on the western side, and the altars of St. Joseph and the Sacred Heart on the opposite side. On the right side of the presbytery is located the weekday chapel, communicating with the apse area.
