Collegiate church Santa Maria Maggiore, Religious monument in Spello, Italy

The Collegiate Church of Santa Maria Maggiore features a Romanesque exterior, cross-vaulted nave, and seven altars decorated with intricate 17th-century stucco work.

The church, established between the 11th and 12th centuries, underwent significant expansion in 1644, resulting in the construction of its current facade.

The Baglioni Chapel contains Renaissance frescoes by Pinturicchio depicting sibyls on thrones, while the main altar displays a stone ciborium by Rocco di Tommaso.

The church stands at Piazza Matteotti 18 in Spello and belongs to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Foligno, offering regular services to the community.

The floor of the Baglioni Chapel exhibits Deruta majolica tiles from 1566, complementing a marble baptistery created by Gasparino da Val di Lugano between 1509 and 1511.
