Reviews
Son of the better-known Virginio, Pope Pius IX's reference architect, Francesco Vespignani was called to build this splendid neo-Romanesque style church on the Aventine hill and he did so admirably following the project of the Benedictine abbot de Hemptinne.
The mystical aura of Gregorian chants pervades the entire space of the church, rising up to the vault and then descending again to heights more suited to the human soul.
A beautiful bronze statue of Sant'Anselm stands out inside the quadriporticus at the entrance to the church.
The mosaics that embellish the apse are the work of a very talented German monk.
The wooden ceiling adds value to the entire architectural structure of the church.
Beautiful church….
Nice quiet place. Talkative cats. Great ice cream nearby
Beautiful and sober church, very well-kept garden and there is the possibility of buying products in the friars' shop, around there are also many panoramic points and churches and monuments to see
