Sacro Cuore del Suffragio

Just a 20-minute drive from San Anselmo is Prati neighborhood's Sacro Cuore del Suffragio. When you visit, you'll find that its neolithic style contrasts well with its surroundings. The church is also known as the Little Milan Cathedral and is a pleasant deviation from the Roman architecture we know and love.
