Catholic Church of Santa Maria

It is an Italian Catholic Church located on Halit Ziya Boulevard and Franciscan monks are active in the church. Located in the passport area, the church was dedicated to the Virgin Mary and was opened for worship in 1689. The building, which was destroyed in 1889, was rebuilt in 1890. Although the façade of the building is quite plain, the main entrance façade to the east has a meticulous workmanship. This facade was divided into two floors and ended with a triangular pediment.
