Nostra Signora del Carmine e Sant'Agnese, Romanesque church in Genoa, Italy.

The church features three naves with arched pillars, rectangular apse, and original Gothic capitals throughout its interior architectural structure.

In 1262, Carmelite friars began construction on the site of an existing chapel, with Bishop Filippo Da Passano laying the first stone on May 21.

The interior holds medieval frescoes in the main apse and paintings by Genoese artists from the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries.

The church stands at Via Brignole de Ferrari 5 in Genoa, near Via Balbi, and belongs to the Centro Ovest vicariate of the Genoa archdiocese.

The church maintains one of the few remaining rectangular apses, characteristic of thirteenth-century mendicant order Gothic architecture.
