Madonna Addolorata al Torresino, Baroque church in central Padua, Italy.

The church features a cylindrical bell tower with crenellations that connects the rectangular atrium to the main structure through curved architectural elements.

Construction of Madonna Addolorata al Torresino began in 1718 on the site of a former oratory, with completion achieved under architect Girolamo Frigimelica in 1726.

The interior displays eight allegorical statues created by Antonio Bonazza in 1741, representing virtues such as Patience, Prudence, Virginity, Purity, and Charity.

The church maintains regular mass services at 18:30 on weekdays and Saturdays, with additional morning services at 10:30 and evening services at 18:30 on Sundays.

The modern High Altar, designed by Carlo Scarpa in 1978, combines polished black marble with brass elements beneath a cupola supported by Corinthian columns.
