Chiesa di Santa Maria Annunziata, Medieval church in Ponte Nossa, Italy

The Chiesa di Santa Maria Annunziata features traditional frescoes and religious iconography within its stone walls, reflecting medieval architectural principles throughout its structure.

The church's foundation dates to March 25, 1250, when the Servite order constructed their mother church on the site of a former Franciscan monastery.

The interior contains numerous votive offerings from visitors who sought miracles, including life-size wax effigies that accumulated during the 17th century.

Visitors can access the Chiesa di Santa Maria Annunziata daily between 7:30 AM to 12:30 PM and 4:00 PM to 6:30 PM for prayer or architectural appreciation.

Local records indicate Leonardo da Vinci received a commission for the high altarpiece but never completed the work due to other commitments.
