Former Church of Santa Lucia (Gaeta)

Gaeta, Italy · built 1765

The Santa Lucia Auditorium is a concert hall set up in the deconsecrated church of the same name, formerly Santa Maria in Pensulis, located in the historic center of Gaeta, in the province of Latina, on Via Ladislao, 27. It is the oldest church in the city, being the result of the 11th-century expansion of a pre-existing early medieval place of worship; closed to worship in 1966, it was deconsecrated in 1972 and is owned by the municipality of Gaeta. The building is, together with the church of San Giovanni a Mare, an example of Gaeta's Romanesque architecture, characterized by early Christian and Byzantine influences.
