On the square of the same name, close to the main course of the Topino River in the Poelle district, which is one of the most picturesque parts of the city, stands the church of San Giacomo<\/strong> (St James) attached to the Servi di Maria<\/strong> (Servants of Mary) convent. The building has belonged to the order of monks since 1994 but lies atop a previous complex dating back to the thirteenth century. Subsequent remodeling altered the interior and exterior of the building between the fifteenth and eighteenth centuries.<\/p>\n

The present fa\u00e7ade, constructed of alternating bands of white and pink stone, the elegant ogee arched door and the octagonal dome that covers all three internal naves were done at the beginning of the 1400s.
\nIn the left aisle there is a beautiful painting depicting St Rocco, attributed to Mezzastris<\/em>, and there are noteworthy frescoes that decorate the convent cloister, with scenes depicting the life of St Phillip \u00a0Benizi, painted between 1657 and 1659 by Giovan Battista Michelini<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
