Complesso della Santissima Annunziata, Baroque religious complex in Sulmona, Italy.
The Santissima Annunziata complex features a church with three naves, a bell tower reaching 65 meters, and a palace arranged around an internal courtyard.
Founded in 1320 by the Brotherhood of Penitents, the complex underwent major reconstruction after earthquakes in 1456 and 1706, leading to its current Baroque architecture.
The interior displays artistic contributions from multiple creators, including wooden choir stalls by Bartolomeo Balcone and paintings by Giambattista Gamba and Alessandro Salini.
The complex operates both as a religious institution and a civic museum, with separate visiting schedules for the church and palace sections.
The bell tower, designed by Bishop Matteo Colli and constructed between 1565 and 1588, stands as the tallest campanile in the Abruzzo region.
