The church of Santa Maria in Araceli is a late-Baroque style church built in the late 17th century in Vicenza according to designs attributed to Guarino Guarini.Documents first take note of a church at the site dating from 1241. They refer to a church of Santa Maria in the area that stood near a convent. This convent which in 1277 belonged to the Clarisse Nuns was called Santa Maria ad Cellam (referring to the nun’s rooms).
