Church of Saint Peter the Apostle and Convent of Santa Maria Assunta
The Church of Saint Peter the Apostle, together with the adjoining Convent of Santa Maria Assunta, forms one of Belforte del Chienti’s most important religious complexes. Built in the 17th century, the convent welcomed the religious community and played a central role in the town’s spiritual and social life. The church, dedicated to Saint Peter, has simple yet harmonious forms typical of the period’s architecture and preserves valuable artistic works tied to local religious tradition. Still today, the complex stands as a point of reference for the community, not only for worship but also as a custodian of historical memory.
