Basilica of Saint Nicholas of Tolentino

The Basilica of Saint Nicholas of Tolentino (Basilica di San Nicola a Tolentino) is a Roman Catholic church and minor basilica that is part of the Augustinian monastery in the hill-town of Tolentino, province of Macerata, Marche, central Italy. The church is a former cathedral of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Tolentino, suppressed in 1586. Notably, it was the first minor basilica to be formally canonically created, by Pope Pius VI in the brief Supremus Ille in 1783. Prior to this, minor basilicas were created via immemorial custom. It contains architecture and art from the 14th through to the 17th centuries. The imposing marble facade of the church was constructed over the centuries, and was completed in the 17th century. Burials include that of Saint Nicholas of Tolentino.
