Santa Maria in Valverde, Baroque church in Palermo, Italy.

The church presents a rectangular nave with a semicircular apse, decorated with mixed marbles and stuccos creating patterns of scrolls and garlands.

The structure, established near a 12th-century convent, underwent major renovations in 1633 under architect Mariano Smiriglio with funds from Camillo Pallavicino.

The interior features frescoes by Olivio Sozzi depicting The Glory of the Virgin and ceiling paintings by Antonio Grano showing biblical narratives.

The church opens every Thursday from 4 PM to 7 PM, with extended hours from 5 PM to 8 PM starting in May, at Largo Cavalieri di Malta.

The secondary entrance displays a stone baroque portal with intricate scroll designs, accompanied by a three-tiered 17th-century bell tower.
