"This was very beautiful, and it was really well preserved, but not worth 5 stars. Still don't get me wrong it was really nice, you should visit it."
Vilmos Gabor
"Sometimes to understand if a place is touristically interesting, more than at the stars is better to look at the quantity of the reviews, but not in this case.
This church had disappeared from the database and it was recently inserted again, but the old contributions have disappeared, so they are few and I add again my pictures.
Small but nice church and above all unique in the world with a trullo shape.
The parish of Sant'Antonio was built in 1927 but since 1910 the "Monti" district had already become a National Monument and nothing could be built in a modern style. Since 1996 it also became a UNESCO World Heritage Site together with the "Aia piccola" district."
