Why visit
The Salesian complex connects religion, education and Santa Rosa’s urban growth. The basilica replaced an 1884 chapel, and its large pipe organ was inaugurated in 1956. Architecture and music reveal how faith also creates public cultural experiences.
What to look for
- Basilica façade and overall form
- Pipe organ, if the nave is open
