Places to see in ( Reggio Emilia - Italy ) Basilica di San Prospero
The Basilica of San Prospero is an ancient church in central Reggio Emilia, Italy. A church at the site, known as San Prospero di Castello, located inside the city walls, is known prior to 997. The church and its adjacent bell tower underwent reconstructions. In 1514, the church which was in ruins, was demolished and a new design by Luca Corti and Matteo Florentino was erected by 1527. Minor chapels were added till 1543, when the basilica was reconsecrated. Major changes to the belltower were designed by Cristoforo Ricci and Giulio Romano in 1536-1570.
The facade of the church had been left incomplete till it was completed in 1748-1753 using designs of Giovanni Battista Cattani. While the statues on the facade are contemporary with Cattani's design, on the dais in front of the church are placed six lions (1501), sculpted in rose-colored marble by Gaspare Bigi, and meant to be bases for columns of a portico that had been planned for the church front.
The interior has works of art by Giovanni Giarola, Michelangelo Anselmi, Denis Calvaert, Ludovico Carracci, and Tommaso Laureti. It has altarpieces by Alessandro Tiarini and Francesco Stringa. Sculptors whose work is in the church include Bartolomeo Spani (Tomb of Rufino Gabloneta (1527) over the entrance) and Prospero Spani (il Clemente), who sculpted a Madonna on the right transept. The presbytery has a picture cycle by Camillo Procaccini and Bernardino Campi. The apse is frescoed with a Last Judgment by Procaccini.
The Chapel of the Pratonero family in this church once held the painting by Correggio of the Nativity (La Notte) (1522), which now is found in the Dresden Gallery. In 1640, the painting was absconded from the chapel by the Dukes of Modena for their private collection, a sacrilege which generated a local uproar. A copy made in replacement.

La Chiesa di San Prospero, Reggio Emilia: l'interno della basilica
Guida Storica di Reggio Emilia - BASILICA DI S PROSPERO
E’ inserita nel cuore della città romana e medioevale, tra il decumano e il cardine massimo. Fu edificata tra il 997 e il 998 d.c. e ricostruita completamente entro la metà del’500, a causa delle sue condizioni di degrado.
Del primo edificio, completamente abbattuto, si sono conservati solo alcuni frammenti. La nuova chiesa doveva essere più ampia e maestosa della precedente, con una scalinata marmorea, ornata di sei leoni in marmo rosso, i quali probabilmente avevano il compito di sorreggere le colonne dei protiri della facciata, non più realizzati.
Nello stesso periodo venne costruita la torre ottagonale, che rimase però incompiuta. La facciata invece, venne completata, in stile barocco, nel 1748.
