Santa Maria Nascente, Franciscan convent in Sabbioncello, Merate, Italy
The Santa Maria Nascente encompasses a church, multiple chapels, a cloister, and two additional wings within its religious architectural structure in Lombardy.
The initial construction of the church began in 1508, with four lateral chapels added in 1540 and a bell tower constructed in 1553.
The church contains significant frescoes from the 16th century on the right wall of the nave and preserves the habit of Saint John of Capestrano.
The convent functions as a provincial infirmary for Lombardy's Franciscan friars and offers daily liturgical services and confessions to visitors.
Terracotta stations of the Via Crucis line the road leading to the convent, installed in 1967 to replace earlier deteriorated versions.
