Chiesa di San Francesco, Mazara del Vallo, Sicily, 270

            The Church of St. Francis, an example of Sicilian Baroque, the original building was in Arab-Norman style with three naves and twelve altars, in addition to the main one.
In 1680, Msgr. Francesco Maria Grifeo (then bishop of the diocese ), he decided to turn it into baroque style, the two side aisles were demolished, and the nave was raised and covered with a barrel vault.
He was then reopened for worship in 1703, to be closed again following the earthquake of Belize in 1968, during which the church and the adjoining convent suffered significant damage. In 1977 the restoration works were started.
