Saint Rosalia Church

The Saint Rosalia Church features ornate architectural details with curved lines, decorative elements, and symmetrical design elements throughout its structure.

Francesco Contini designed this religious structure in 1656, incorporating the architectural principles prevalent during the Catholic Counter-Reformation period.

The church stands as a testament to the regional devotion to Saint Rosalia, who gained prominence after the miraculous end of a plague in Palermo.

Visitors can access the church through the main entrance facing the central square, with regular visiting hours during morning and afternoon periods.

The church combines elements of Roman baroque style with local architectural traditions, displaying intricate stonework patterns specific to the Palestrina region.
