Bishop's Seminary |
|
The Bishop's Seminary is in Saint Francis Square. It dates back to the Renaissance but had been heavily redesigned in the early 1900s. In that period, the church embodied Holy Virgin of the Angels Church. The latter church was founded in the Middle Age but also restored subsequently. The Seminary is the Summer Residence of Cassano allo Jonio's Bishop.
