Convento di San Giacomo di Latronorio

Convento di San Giacomo di Latronorio, Medieval convent in San Giacomo, Italy.

The Convento di San Giacomo di Latronorio stands on elevated ground in Varazze, featuring a single-nave church and two adjacent buildings.

The convent's establishment dates to the 12th century when the Vallombrosian Congregation initiated its construction, with first written records from 1168.

The convent maintains its religious function under the Roman Catholic Diocese of Savona-Noli, following traditional Christian liturgical practices.

Located at Via San Giovanni in Varazze, the convent has undergone significant renovations and houses a small community of Franciscan friars since 2013.

The chapter house, positioned on the right side of the church, preserves its original structure from medieval times.
