Santa Maria Paganica Church

Santa Maria Paganica Church exhibits Gothic architectural features with pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a stone facade in the central district of L'Aquila.

The church, constructed in the 13th century, experienced substantial damage during the 2009 earthquake that affected numerous buildings throughout L'Aquila.

The building maintains its role as a gathering place for religious ceremonies and houses medieval frescoes that display regional artistic traditions.

The church restoration project continues with limited access for visitors, while guided tours provide information about the ongoing preservation efforts.

The structure incorporates local stone materials from the surrounding Abruzzo mountains, creating a distinctive pattern in its exterior walls.
