Nostra Signora Assunta e Santa Zita, Renaissance Revival church in Foce district, Genoa, Italy.

The church stands between Via di Santa Zita and Corso Buenos Aires, featuring a Florentine Renaissance Revival design with detailed architectural elements.

The current structure, built in 1893, replaced an older church from the 13th century that Lucchese merchants constructed near the Bisagno river.

The interior contains the Madonna of the City statue and a painting by Valerio Castello depicting the Miracle of Saint Zita.

The church serves as a parish within the Albaro vicariate of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Genoa, providing religious services to local residents.

The portal from the previous church remains preserved at the back of the building, displaying three 16th-century statues by Paracca.
