Santissima Annunziata, Baroque church in Spotorno, Italy
The Santissima Annunziata is a Baroque church in Spotorno featuring white marble walls and elaborate decorative details throughout its facade. Its interior contains three naves with multiple altars, frescoes, and plasterwork typical of late 17th-century Italian religious architecture.
The church was built in 1694 during a period of renewed Catholic architecture following the Counter-Reformation in the Liguria region. It became a religious landmark that reflected the architectural values and spiritual priorities of its era.
The church serves as the main religious and social center for Spotorno's Catholic community, hosting weddings, baptisms, and feast day celebrations. It remains deeply woven into the town's spiritual and daily life.
The church is located on Via Giuseppe Garibaldi in the town center and is accessible to visitors for viewing and prayer. It is best to check opening times ahead of your visit, as they may vary due to religious services and special events.
The church was officially recognized as Italian national heritage in 1937 and placed under protection. This designation honored its role as an important architectural example of Baroque craftsmanship along the Ligurian coast.
