Oratory of San Nicola da Tolentino, Renaissance oratory in Vicenza, Italy.
The oratory displays a facade with four Corinthian pilasters and contains multiple paintings from the Venetian school throughout its interior spaces.
Construction of the oratory began in 1505 under architect Carlo Bottiron, with the current facade completed in 1678 following several modifications.
The ceiling presents elaborate artwork by Giulio Carpioni from 1677, depicting Saint Nicholas ascending to heaven surrounded by representations of his miracles.
The oratory maintains regular opening hours for visitors to view the collection of 16th and 17th-century paintings and statues by Francesco Pozzo.
Francesco Maffei's altarpiece of The Holy Trinity stands among numerous canvases inserted into wall niches that illustrate Saint Nicholas's life events.
