Chiesa Santa Maria delle Grazie
Chiesa Santa Maria delle Grazie Review
The earliest records of the Church of St. Mary of Grace date from the 15th century, when it was part of a Franciscan monastery. Now it's a retirement home. The church's most remarkable feature is the huge fresco on a wall segmenting the main nave painted by an unknown Lombard artist some time around 1500. It depicts the Crucifixion in the center, surrounded by 15 vignettes from the life of Christ.
