The Church of San Fermo Maggiore in Verona is an architectural marvel comprising two stacked sanctuaries. The lower 11th-century Romanesque church retains ancient stone pillars and early frescoes, while the upper 14th-century Gothic church dazzles with a magnificent wooden ship-keel ceiling adorned with carved heads of saints.
