About Nice appart

The Chapel of Ste-Rita, also known as the Église de l'Annonciation or Saint-Giaume, is a Roman Catholic church in the heart of Nice's Old Town. Originally founded in the tenth century as a church dedicated to St. James, the present Baroque building was constructed by the Carmelites between 1677 and 1690, and a tower was added in 1741. After the French Revolution, it once again served as a parish church. The interior includes six richly decorated side chapels and a Tamburini organ. Since 1844, the Oblates of the Virgin Mary have been responsible for the church. Today it is best known for the veneration of Saint Rita of Cascia, regarded as a patron saint of difficult situations, as well as for its altarpiece depicting the Annunciation.
