Santa Maria in Araceli, Baroque church in Vicenza, Italy
The Santa Maria in Araceli features a marble altar crafted by Tommaso Bezzi in 1696, with an altarpiece depicting religious prophecies.
The construction of Santa Maria in Araceli began between 1672 and 1680 under architect Guarino Guarini and reached completion with its consecration in 1743.
The church holds a significant 13th-century painted crucifix, transferred from the Church of San Vito, displayed on its right altar.
Located at Piazza Araceli in Vicenza, the church underwent extensive restoration work that concluded in 1990 after being dormant for several decades.
Original architectural designs of Santa Maria in Araceli remained hidden until their discovery in the Vatican Library collections in 1965.
