Parma

The Dominicans arrived in Parma in 1222, a year after the death of their founder. At first, because it was a few monks, their first home in Parma was the old rectory of Trinity, outside the city walls. In 1233 they passed in Capo di Ponte, Oltretorrente and took up residence in the church Santa Maria Nuova, in places that Martorano, who was in the territory of the Ducal Garden.

In 1244, Guido S. Marazzi Nazzaro, mayor of Parma, with the advice of the Community were urged to find a home more comfortable to the Dominican friars, and so gave them the land which was included along the moat of the door S. Barnabas came up with that of S. Paul and the "Clara to Ripa," as reported by a reminder of the prior of the convent.

"In that place - continues the above-mentioned memorandum - was a manufactured home for just some of the Fathers by Hugh Sanvitale, canon the cathedral and at the same time was given to them the church of S. Cross from the same Sanvitale built in the same place in 1254, because the brothers could take office in the Church there and preach. Starting in 1278, due to a revolt by the sentencing of a heretic, for some years, the Dominicans voluntarily exiled from the city for the return of the brothers in Parma was necessary the intervention of the papal legate Malabranca Latino (Dominican and cardinal) . He then began to manufacture the convent and the church, which was completed in 1333 the facility in which at present is. In 1259 William Oct. 24 in the jars, then resident in Bologna, gave it to a site with all those Fathers land and house next to that already given by the city. On February 18, 1304 the abbot of the monastery Fontevivo through X Pope Benedict gave to the convent of S. Peter all the buildings and houses that the monks held near the Porte St. Barnabas, in return for the Hospital of Ponte Taro, who belonged to the cathedral of Parma. " From what has been said above that much of the land on which it was built, was the Dominican Pilotta.

As is clear from contemporary documents, deeds and words from Chambers kept in our State Archives, the brothers had sold no less than five Biolchi of land and some of their local monastery. To get an idea of \u200b\u200bthe extension of land being transferred must be remembered that the area of \u200b\u200bthe square and that of the Pilotta Guazzatoio occupy a total area equal to 9,600 square meters, or about three Biolcati.
