Chiesa di Sant'Antonio : Via Pr, Via Sertorio, 12, 16039 Sestri Levante GE, Italy

A church in the heart of Sestri Levante, overlooking the square of the same name. I'm fond of this church because my mother took inspiration from Saint Anthony when choosing my name. …

This modern church was built in the 1960s. It was designed by Professor Carlo Cresci. The main altar houses a Crucifix, the work of the Greek iconographer Father Panaiolis Pefkis. At the center of the altar is the Tabernacle, enshrined in the burning bush.

The church features modern architecture, with some particularly artistic elements, such as the large stained-glass window on the façade and the original "stone olive tree" that enlivens the apse. The priests' homilies are profound and engaging.
