Rettoria di Sant'Egidio in Fontanella

About

Episcopal Rectory of St. Egidio at Fontanella.Over 900 years have passed since Albert of Prezzate founded this church and the adjacent Benedictine monastery. Generations have followed one after the other as centuries passed, just the seasons have inexorably changed and the events, both great and small have shaped the history of man.Nevertheless, the sound of footsteps has always echoed through the quiet of the cloister and in the shadow of these imposing walls.Here, men and women have passed through carrying joy and pain to say a prayer, ask for help, listen to the Word, breathe in the Absolute.Here everything speaks of God in three persons, Father, Son and Holy Ghost.Here the community is your brotherly travelling companion, as we walk together through this part of history.
