Annunziata Convent, Dominican convent on the peninsula in Sestri Levante, Italy.

The Annunziata Convent spans over 3,400 square meters, featuring extensive terraces and gardens that face the Bay of Silence and Tigullio Gulf.

Built in 1496 by Dominican Fathers, the convent maintained its religious function until 1797 when Napoleonic forces drove out the religious order.

The convent houses thirteen chapels within its three-nave church structure, including preserved frescoes attributed to painters Domenico Fiasella or Valerio Castello.

The restored complex contains a 400-seat auditorium, multimedia classrooms, conference rooms, and fifteen guest rooms with three studio apartments.

The building occupies the extreme tip of the peninsula with three sides directly facing the sea, creating a strategic position between the Bay of Silence and open waters.
