Santella dell'Ave Maria ---
The Santella dell'Ave Maria is a small devotional chapel that represents one of Bergamo's lesser-known spiritual treasures, located in the eastern part of the city. This small religious monument bears witness to the deep Marian tradition that has characterized Bergamo's history over the centuries.
This santella, dedicated to the Virgin Mary, represents a fascinating example of minor religious architecture, typical of Bergamo's streets and squares. Built at a time when local communities desired spaces for prayer and reflection in their own neighborhoods, the chapel still maintains today an intimate and evocative atmosphere that invites contemplation.
