The oratory of the SS. Annunziata di Cori with its frescoed chapel is one of the most extraordinary works of the fifteenth century and is a national monument.
The oratory was a room annexed to the church dedicated to S. Crocifisso and is located along the road that connected Cori to the foothills.
From an inscription on the entrance portal we read that it was wanted by Cardinal Pedro Fernández de Frías, who governed the provinces of Campagna and Marittima.
The frescoes were made in three phases and the last ones date back to the fifteenth century. There are scenes from the Old and New Testaments and stories of local saints.
Next to the door, there is the oldest coat of arms of the Municipality of Cori.
