Large chapel of 1504 in Santa Maria la Nova, where Saint James of the Marches lay until 2001.

In the church of Santa Maria la Nova, the great chapel of San Giacomo della Marca was built in 1504 to a design by Raimo Epifanio, reusing an existing building and connecting it to the church.For centuries it held the body of the Franciscan saint James of the Marches, moved in 2001 to the sanctuary of Monteprandone, his birthplace. It remains a Renaissance space of great charm, to be visited together with the complex.
