Sanctuary of Our Lady of Mercy
This 14th-century church, known as Santuario della Madonna della Misericordia in Italian, is renowned for the portrait of Madonna della Misericordia, painted by the artist Giuseppe Soleri in the 18th–19th century. Located near the Augustus Arch, this sanctuary was originally constructed by Clarisse nuns. Throughout its history, this church has been a site of continuous pilgrimages and a place of profound prayer. It is said that the miraculous image of Madonna della Misericordia moved its eyes in 1850, adding to its mystique. As a result, the 12th of every month holds special significance as a day to commemorate this miraculous event.
