Collegiata di Santa Maria Assunta, Gothic church in Chivasso, Italy.

The Collegiata di Santa Maria Assunta features a façade adorned with terracotta decorations and figures representing 15th-century Piedmontese artistic elements.

Construction of the church began in 1415 under Marquis Theodore II of Montferrat, with the bell tower completed in 1487 and the main nave vault raised in 1475.

The church contains a sculptural group depicting the Lamentation over Christ from the second half of the 15th century, created by an artist influenced by Burgundian style.

The church structure includes three naves, with the right nave entrance designated as a Holy Door during the 2015 Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy.

A painted panel by Defendente Ferrari from the early 16th century, depicting the Lamentation scene, remains in the artist's hometown church.
