San Pietro, Vidiciatico
San Pietro in Vidiciatico is a Roman Catholic parish church located in the neighborhood of Vidiciatico, which belongs to the township of Lizzano in Belvedere in the Province of Bologna, Italy. The present church was erected in the 1882–1884, to replace a Romanesque-style church built in 1393. Of the old church only the apse portion remains with a mullioned window. The adjacent square bell-tower was built at a site that likely was part of an ancient castle tower. The interior houses an altarpiece by Antonio Crespi, son of the more famous Giuseppe Crespi Giuseppe Maria Crespi (March 14, 1665 – July 16, 1747), nicknamed Lo Spagnuolo ("The Spaniard"), was an Italian late Baroque painter of the Bolognese School. His eclectic output includes religious paintings and portraits, but he is now most ..., depicting ''Jesus granting St Peter the Keys of his Church''. Nearby is the Oratory of San Rocco, built in 1631 after the ebbing of the black plague.

Romanesque Architecture
Romanesque architecture is an architectural style of medieval Europe characterized by semi-circular arches. There is no consensus for the beginning date of the Romanesque style, with proposals ranging from the 6th to the 11th century, this later date being the most commonly held. In the 12th century it developed into the Gothic style, marked by pointed arches.
