Chiostro di Santo Spirito, Religious complex in Ferrara, Italy.
The Santo Spirito cloister features a large church with massive altars and displays several important paintings within its bright interior spaces.
Construction of Santo Spirito began in 1519 under Duke Alfonso I d'Este, but an earthquake in 1570 required extensive reconstruction of the structure.
The church contains five painted rose windows from the Garofalo school, preserved in the chapter house and refectory sections from the 16th century.
Located at via Resistenza 5 in Ferrara, the complex now houses the Institute of Contemporary History and university student accommodations.
A statue of Saint Anthony in the church reportedly moved its head for 30 seconds before witnesses on June 13, 1770.
