Solitary and monolithic, the Church dominates the pre-existing urban context. The monumental plan with an organic shape is inspired by the geometries of some of the most beautiful Baroque churches, such as the “Basilica of Sant'Andrea delle Fratte” and “al Quirinale”, both in Rome, the Ghisilieri Oratory in Ferrara, the Church of “San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane” and the Church of “Sant'Ivo alla Sapienza” in Rome. The main facade, which opens onto the new church square, is characterized by a few but essential elements that define the main signs of the Christian tradition: the entrance portal and the cross.
