The church was completed in 1781, to officiate the burials in the surrounding ossuary of those dying in the adjacent hospital (Ospedale Maggiore e Ospedale Vecchio) of Cremona.

The Torrazzo is the bell tower of the Cathedral of Cremona, Lombardy, in northern Italy. The Torrazzo measures 112.54 metres (369+1⁄4 ft), and it is known as the third tallest brickwork bell tower in the world, the first being the tower of St. Martin's Church in Landshut, Bavaria, and the second at the Church of Our Lady in Bruges, Belgium. However, the Torrazzo (completed in 1309) is older than the Landshut tower (completed in 1500) and the Bruges tower (completed in 1465), and it is the oldest brick structure taller than 100 m that is still standing. According to popular tradition, construction on the tower began in 754. In reality, it was built in four phases: a first dating back to the 1230s, up to the third dripstone, a second, between 1250 and 1267, up to the dripstone under the quadriphore, a third around 1284, and the completion of the marble spire in 1309. Its height is announced by a plaque embedded in the wall at the base of the Torrazzo itself, stating 250 arms and 2 ounces, which in the ancient measuring system of the Lombard towns translates to approximately 111 metres. Archaeological excavations made in the 1980s have discovered the presence of underlying structures which are supposed to be the remains of a more ancient churchyard (or a cemetery associated to it), or even previous Roman buildings.

Santi Clemente e Imerio (or sometimes called Sant'Imerio alone) is a 17th-century Roman Catholic church on Via Aporti 16, in Cremona, region of Lombardy, Italy. The church was commissioned in 1606 by the Marchese Cesare de Soresina Vidoni, in part to house his brother Pietro, who had become a monk in the Order of Discalced Carmelites, and established a convent alongside this church. The exterior was left unfinished in part to demonstrate the vows of poverty of the order. In 1805, the order was suppressed and the remaining monks were relocated to Lodi and Crema. This church was joined to the parish church of San Clemente, thus adding the name. The church has three chapels on each side. The semi-Corinthian columns are odd, since they end in laurel, and not acanthus, leaves. The main altarpiece once held a painting depicting the Virgin and child with St Bishop Imerio and St Jerome, by Luigi Miradori. He also painted a canvas with Saints of the Carmelite order. The main altarpiece is now a Virgin and Child by Margherita Caffi. The first chapel altarpiece on the right depicts the Virgin and Child with St. Anthony (1687) by Giovanni Battista Natali.
