The Church and Convent of Saint Anthony of Padua in Navelli, Italy, is a historical religious complex built in the 14th century by the Friars Minor Observants. The church features a single nave with a barrel-vaulted ceiling and Renaissance frescoes depicting the life of Saint Anthony. The interior includes four baroque altars dedicated to the Annunciation, Saint Francis, Our Lady of Loreto, and Our Lady of the Angels, along with the main altar. The raised presbytery is covered with a ribbed cross vault. The stone facade has a horizontal design, featuring a late Romanesque portal with floral decorations and a circular stone window above. The adjacent convent, historically linked to the monastery of San Francesco a Palazzo in L’Aquila, adds to its cultural significance. Although the rose window is no longer intact, its frame and metallic rays preserve its historic charm.
