Sant'Anna la Misericordia, Baroque church in Palermo, Italy
The Sant'Anna la Misericordia church displays curved elements and concave surfaces on its limestone facade, decorated with intricate sculptural ornaments.
Architect Mariano Smiriglio initiated the construction in 1606, leading to the church's completion in 1632 and consecration in 1639.
The building houses valuable artworks, including a Pietà by Tommaso de Vigilia and frescoes created by Filippo Tancredi throughout its three naves.
The church stands in Piazza Sant'Anna, near the former Lattarini market area, making it accessible for visitors exploring central Palermo.
The adjacent monastery structure now contains the Modern Art Gallery of Palermo, combining religious heritage with contemporary cultural exhibitions.
