San Tommaso, Ascoli Piceno, Romanesque church in Ascoli Piceno, Italy.

The church features a travertine block facade with three naves and a rose window in the central tympanum, complemented by a square bell tower.

Construction of San Tommaso began in 1064 under Bishop Bernardo II, incorporating materials from a first-century BC Roman amphitheater that once stood in front.

The interior displays significant artwork, including a 14th-century Madonna del Latte fresco by Maestro di Offida and a 1298 Enthroned Madonna and Child.

The church maintains regular visiting hours and stands near other architectural monuments in the historical center of Ascoli Piceno, making it accessible for walking tours.

The main altar features a 16th-century gilded wood tabernacle shaped as an octagonal ciborium, demonstrating the architectural refinement of the period.
