Palombara Sabina. Church of Santa Maria del Gonfalone

The earliest records of the church of Santa Maria del Gonfalone in Palombara Sabina date back to 1343.

It has an original Romanesque style, although the façade was subsequently modified in 1770, in baroque style.

The portal has a frame in marble on which is located a border at the foul line. The facade is completed by a porthole window that replaces the classic rosette.

The interior has a nave with two side chapels. In the space behind the altar is an Annunciation, tempera on panel attributed to Antoniazzo Romano.
