San Giovanni Battista, San Giovanni Ilarione

San Giovanni Battista is a Roman Catholic parish church, located in San Giovanni Ilarione, province of Verona, region of Veneto, Italy.

History
The medieval church at this site was initially built within the protection of a castle. It was rebuilt over the centuries, including a consecration in 1525. The present church and bell-tower were competed between 1808 and 1812. The layout is that of a Greek cross with a single nave. The main altarpiece depicts an Enthroned Madonna and Child between Saints Anthony of Padua and John the Evangelist (1486) by Bartolomeo Montagna. A lightning bolt damaged the church, collapsing the bell-tower. The damage has subsequently been repaired.
