ex Oratorio dei SS. Diecimila Martiri-Palermo

Source: Willem Vandenameele

Description

La chiesa fu costruita nei primi anni del XVII secolo per conto dei Cavalieri Gerusalemme, conosciuti anche come Compagnia dei Diecimila Martiri.

L'attuale struttura si presenta con una facciata semplice e i motivi decorativi ricordano i temi del martirio, come le palme e l'alloro. Al centro della struttura si trova un medaglione in stucco contenente Sant'Acacio e i suoi 9.000 soldati che, insieme ad altri 1.000 pagani, furono torturati dall'imperatore romano perché la loro conversione al cristianesimo era considerata tradimento.

La struttura è attualmente (2023) abbandonata.
