Santa Maria Assunta, Parish church in Orta San Giulio, Italy.
The church stands at the summit of Motta Street with its orange-yellow facade decorated with statues of the Virgin Mary and angels.
The initial structure, built in 1485 as a response to the end of an epidemic, transformed from Virgin of Mercy to Santa Maria Assunta in 1560.
The interior features three naves with circular stone columns, containing artworks including Old Testament scenes painted by Luca Rossetti between 1751 and 1763.
Located at the top of a pedestrian street, the church provides access to religious services and showcases architectural elements from different periods.
The chapel of the Immaculate Conception houses a wooden statue from 1783 depicting the Virgin stepping on a dragon holding an apple.
