Chiesa di San Lorenzo delle Benedettine, Baroque church in San Severo, Italy.

The church features a central floor plan with a Rococo marble facade from Apricena and a bell tower topped by a majolica-tiled dome.

Giuseppe Astarita designed the church, which underwent modifications by Ambrosio Piazza in 1782, including the addition of stucco decorations and three altars.

The church contains paintings by Nicola Menzele from 1785, a wooden pulpit from 1790, and gilded wooden jalousies in the matroneum.

The building functions as a place of worship within the Roman Catholic Diocese of San Severo, maintaining regular religious services for the community.

A positive organ from 1740, attributed to Fabrizio Cimino, sits in the central matroneum, reflecting the monastery's musical heritage.
