Santissima Annunziata, Baroque Catholic church in Ispica, Italy.
The Santissima Annunziata church features three orders of architecture with Ionic and Corinthian columns defining its limestone facade and three entrance portals.
Construction of the church began in 1703 following the devastating earthquake of 1693, with initial consecration taking place in 1720 through local noble funding.
The interior displays a Latin cross layout with three naves, decorated by Giuseppe Gianforma's white-blue and gold stucco work depicting biblical scenes.
The church maintains regular services and houses multiple side altars containing paintings and statues created between the 16th and 20th centuries.
The church's facade collapsed in 1869 due to restoration work errors, leading to the construction of the current architectural design.
