Mannerist churches

English: This page features media of churches that are built in the style of Mannerism. Mannerism emerged in European art and architecture in the later years of the Italian High Renaissance around 1520, spreading by about 1530 and lasting until about the end of the 16th century in Italy; Northern Mannerism continued into the early 17th century. It was preceded by High Renaissance style and followed by Baroque style.
Be aware that during the long course of their existence many of these buildings underwent extended alterations and/or additions in order to implement new architectural styles. Therefore, some of the churches on this page may not be examples of pure Mannerist style.
Productive mannerist architects are marked with an asterisk (*).
