Church of the Beatitudes

catholic_church_white.png
The Church of the Beatitudes itself only dates back to the 1930’s, and was built in part by the largesse of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. A small, modern structure of interesting design, it is the church’s landscaping and setting rather than the structure itself that inspires awe in its visitors. Architecturally the building’s most interesting feature is its unique octoganal design, which symbolizes the eight Beatitudes.
