Description

Chiesa di Santa Maria sopra Minerva ad Assisi is a unique sacred monument in the heart of Assisi. The church was built on the foundations of a former Roman temple dedicated to the goddess Minerva, which gives it a unique character combining antiquity with Christianity.

The façade with its six Corinthian columns delights any architecture lover, being one of the best preserved examples of a Roman temple in Italy.

The interior of the church, though baroque, hides a fascinating history of the cultural and religious changes of the region.
