Chiesa di San Tropete (Church of St. Tropete), Genoa
The church of San Tropete is a religious edifice in the historic center of Genoa, Piazza San Giorgio, right next door to San Giorgio church. The parish community is part of the East Central Vicariate of the Archdiocese of Genoa. The cult of St. Tropete was imported to Genoa by the merchants of Pisa. The temple is easily recognizable by its rectangular arch (in oval) with recesses at the corners, while inside the elliptical dome occupies the entire space, highlighted by stucco, giving continuity to the environment.
