San Michele, Convent and church in Caltanissetta, Italy.

The San Michele complex consists of a church and an adjacent Capuchin convent situated in the central district of Caltanissetta, featuring traditional Italian architectural elements.

Following the expulsion of Capuchins from their previous location in 1866, the construction of this religious complex began and reached completion in 1888.

The annual procession on May 8 involves carrying the statue of Saint Michael through the historical streets, accompanied by the Real Maestranza guards.

The church maintains regular visiting hours and welcomes tourists interested in exploring its architectural features and religious artifacts throughout the year.

The wooden crucifix in the church choir, attributed to Giuseppe Frattallone, represents a notable example of local religious craftsmanship.
