The Oratory of Saint Lawrence is a Baroque oratory of Palermo. It is located near the Basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi, in the quarter of the Kalsa, within the historic centre of Palermo.
The oratory was built in 1569 to replace a former smaller church dedicated to St Lawrence. Construction was funded by a confraternity of mainly Genovese merchants, and linked to Conventual Franciscans. In 1699-1706, Giacomo Serpotta realized a sumptuous stucco decoration, depicting the life of St Francis.
The oratory is particularly famous because of the masterpiece altarpiece Nativity with St. Francis and St. Lawrence by Caravaggio.
