Basilica del Beato Angelo d'Acri, Minor basilica in Acri, Italy
The Basilica del Beato Angelo d'Acri is a religious building in a mountain village with two identical bell towers and a large central dome. Twelve smaller chapels are arranged symmetrically and form the interior space.
Construction began in 1893 following an Italian architect's design and was completed a few years later. The church was later designated a basilica and honors a saint venerated in the region.
The entrance displays religious symbols and sacred figures that reflect the faith and devotion shaping this place. Visitors notice these visual elements immediately upon entering.
The interior is well organized with several spaces to explore, and visitors can easily move through the different chapels. It helps to allow time for your visit to see all areas thoroughly.
A remarkable feature is the heavy decorative entrance door displaying religious scenes and church symbols throughout. This crafted work catches visitors' eyes immediately and shows the care taken during construction.
