Fresco by Painter Battaglia (18th Century)
This 18th-century fresco by painter Battaglia adorns the interior of the Santuario di Nostra Signora di Montenero in Riomaggiore. The work is a striking example of period mural art, created by Battaglia, who hailed from Castelnuovo Magra in the province of La Spezia. The fresco remains a notable feature of the sanctuary, offering visitors insight into the region's artistic heritage and religious architecture from the 1700s. What to see here includes this significant wall painting alongside the sanctuary's other period features.
Agati-Tronci Organ (1899)
The organ at the Santuario di Nostra Signora di Montenero dates from 1899 and was built by the prestigious Pistoian firm Agati-Tronci, one of Italy's foremost organ builders of that era. This instrument remains an important part of the sanctuary's musical and cultural heritage, showcasing the craftsmanship characteristic of late 19th-century Italian organ manufacturing.
