Chiesa di San Pietro a Coppito, 13th-century Gothic church in L'Aquila, Italy
The church features a white stone facade with vertical pilasters, horizontal cornices, and two Roman marble lions flanking the entrance portal.
Built in 1257 by residents of Coppito castle, the church served as a central gathering point for the newly established city of L'Aquila.
The interior preserves medieval frescoes depicting the Legend of Saint George and contains a notable wall painting of Saint Louis King by Antonio Cavaretto.
The church reopens to visitors on June 29, 2024, following extensive restoration work after damage caused by the 2009 earthquake.
The octagonal bell tower from 1280 houses bells manufactured in 2018 by traditional foundries from Agnone.
