Oratory of St John the Baptist and St Anthony abbot, Gothic chapel and religious museum in Urbino, Italy.

The Oratory of St John the Baptist contains frescoes depicting biblical narratives, including scenes from John the Baptist's life and a Crucifixion behind the altar.

The Oratory, commissioned to Finello Ugolini in 1365, was built on the site of a former pilgrim hospice and joined the Lateran Basilica in 1599.

The Salimbeni brothers from San Severino Marche painted the interior walls with detailed frescoes in 1416, demonstrating the International Gothic style.

Located at Via Federico Barocci 31 in Urbino, the Oratory receives approximately 28,000 visitors annually and offers limited wheelchair accessibility.

The wooden ceiling follows the design of a ship's hull, while two stone panels on the facade display the TS monogram and Lateran Chapter symbols.
