Church of Santa Maria della Pace

The church features pink marble Corinthian columns, statues of the apostles, and a centralized dome designed by Venetian architect Giorgio Massari.

Construction of the church started in 1720 and concluded in 1746, with the Oratorian order overseeing its development and religious functions.

The interior displays numerous artworks, including frescoes by Francesco Monti and Giovanni Zanardi, plus an altarpiece by Pompeo Batoni from 1747.

The church stands at the intersection of Via Elia Capriolo and Via delle Grazie, offering visitors access to religious services and art exhibitions.

The main altar incorporates two decorative musical organs, while the unfinished facade contrasts with the elaborate Baroque interior decorations.
