Chiesa di Santa Lucia, Gothic church in Magliano de' Marsi, Italy

The church exhibits a rectangular facade with three ogival arched portals and a central rose window surrounded by carved stone decorations.

The structure originated in the 13th century on the foundations of a Roman temple dedicated to Jupiter Stator and underwent reconstruction after the 1915 Avezzano earthquake.

The church displays intricate stone carvings depicting biblical scenes, including Samson fighting a lion and a sphinx holding a man in its claws.

The church operates under the Roman Catholic Diocese of Avezzano and maintains regular mass schedules for local worshippers and visitors.

An enigmatic Latin inscription reading 'Rotas Opera Tenet Arepo Sator' appears on the building, matching a similar text at San Pietro ad Oratorium in Capestrano.
