Chiesa e convento di Santa Lucia, Franciscan convent in Borgo Santa Lucia, Italy.
The Santa Lucia complex includes a church with four side chapels and a monastery building featuring classical architecture with 17th-century Baroque elements.
The monastery, established in the 15th century, was suppressed in 1771 by the Venetian Republic and later restored by Reformed Franciscan friars in 1830.
The monastery library contains 15 incunabula, 114 books from the 1500s, and 18 manuscripts including 16 choir books with musical notations.
The monastery's ancient collection moved to the Library of San Francesco della Vigna in Venice in 2012 for preservation purposes.
The choir manuscripts feature examples of cantus fractus notation, combining monodic tradition with polyphonic elements and organ accompaniment.
