Madonna del Terremoto, Baroque church in Piazza Canossa, Mantua, Italy.
The Madonna del Terremoto church exhibits ornate decorations throughout its structure, featuring refined architectural elements typical of Italian Baroque design standards.
Built in 1754, this religious structure received its name as a dedication to the Virgin Mary following the major earthquake that struck Sicily in 1693.
The church originally displayed two significant artworks by Giuseppe Bazzani, including the Adoration by the Shepherds and a Pietà, now preserved in Mantua's Diocesan Museum.
Located at coordinates 45.15977N, 10.79288E in central Mantua, the church stands near multiple local establishments and remains accessible for both worshippers and visitors.
