Sant'Eustochia, Church building in Messina, Italy

The Sant'Eustochia church features a late Renaissance portal with marble inlays and large frescoes adorning its architectural elements throughout the interior space.

Founded in 1450 by Eustochia Calafato, the church underwent multiple reconstructions following earthquakes, including the devastating 1908 Messina seismic event.

The monastery attached to Sant'Eustochia maintains the only cloistered religious community in the Diocese of Messina, following the original rules of Saint Clare.

The church treasury contains numerous silver artifacts from the 17th century, while the main altar preserves the incorrupt body of Saint Eustochia.

Located on Via XXIV Maggio, formerly known as Via dei Monasteri, the church stands as one of the few religious institutions that survived multiple natural disasters.
