Santa Maria del Suffragio, Baroque church in L'Aquila, Italy

The Santa Maria del Suffragio church features a Latin cross layout with a single nave leading to a rectangular apse under a neoclassical dome.

The construction began on October 10, 1713, following the devastating earthquake of 1703 that damaged the previous Confraternita del Suffragio building.

The religious structure contains multiple artistic elements, including decorative altars created by Orazio Antonio Bucci and Giovanni Pirri in the left chapel.

Visitors can access the church daily from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM on weekdays and from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM during holidays.

The 2009 earthquake caused major damage to the structure, leading to an international restoration project supported by the French government.
