Church of the Gesu, Renaissance church building in Frascati, Italy.

The Church of the Gesu displays Renaissance architecture with a single nave design and numerous Baroque frescoes decorating its interior walls and ceiling.

Cardinal Henry Benedict Stuart, Duke of York, consecrated the church in 1773 and transferred its ownership from the Jesuit college to establish a diocesan seminary.

The church contains important artwork including depictions of St. Ignatius and St. Sebastian, along with La Presentazione al Tempio from Andrea Pozzo's school.

Located at Piazza del Gesu 14 in Frascati, visitors can contact the church office at +39 06 9420238 for current opening hours and mass schedules.

Two silver lamps bearing the Duke of York's coat-of-arms hang in front of the sanctuary, marking the cardinal's personal contribution to the church's decoration.
