Chiesa di Santa Maria della Vita

Santa Maria dei Servi

The small church is located next to Piazza Maggiore and is worth a visit for the sculpture Lamentation over the Dead Christ by Niccolo dell'Arco.

It is an unjustly neglected masterpiece of Italian sculpture, which Gabriele D'Annunzio called "the stone cry".
