Anguillara Sabazia. Church of Our Lady of Grace

The church of Our Lady of Grace of Anguillara Sabazia is on the shore of the lake of Bracciano.

It is important because in here is the fresco of a Madonna with Child, which in 1796 would miraculously move its eyes.

The event is celebrated each year with a festival.

The façade is preceded by an arched portico which was added at a later time and is accessed from the central one.

Originally the church was very simple with a gable, a circular window and a small bell gable.

The interior is in the form of a Greek cross and ends with three apses with altars and the vaulted ceiling is decorated with fake rose windows.
