Complesso monumentale di San Nicolò, Gothic theatre and cloister in Spoleto, Italy

The San Nicolo complex features two distinct cloisters, one from the 14th century with white and pink stone pillars and another added in the 15th century.

Construction began in 1304 on the site of two previous religious buildings, with Martin Luther staying at the monastery during his visit in 1512.

The monastery maintained an extensive library organized by humanist Pierleone Leoni, making it a center for scholars and artists in the 15th century.

The restored complex now functions as a conference center with a capacity of 450 people, hosting theatrical performances, exhibitions, and various cultural events.

The church displays a Gothic portal with a lunette containing a 1412 fresco depicting Madonna with Child between Saints Augustine and Nicholas.
