The church of Sant’Egidio is located in the historic center of Mantua on Via Pietro Frattini. A church was located on the site likely by the 9th century but is documented from the yer 1151 in a bull by Pope Eugenius III . In 1540 the chapel of the Valenti was built commissioned by the last will of Valente Valenti courtier in the Gonzaga Duchy. Beginning in 1721 the church underwent a major reconstruction and the present facade dates to that time.
