TEMPLE OF SAN RAFFAELE (year 1659)

The Tempietto, in neoclassical style, dedicated to S. Raffaele (patron saint of pharmacists) and to the Holy Virgin, stands on the hill of the same name, immersed in the greenery of the park overlooking the town. Built in 1659 by the future Cardinal Carlo Camillo Massimo II, it has four brick pilasters on the main facade, surmounted by Corinthian terracotta capitals. On the sides there were originally two arches; the one on the right remains standing, with a shaped cornice.

The interior, with a rectangular plan, is enriched with exquisite frescoes, attributed to the school of Domenico Zampieri, known as Domenichino: "The Probatic Pool", "Tobias's lunch", "Tobias, Tobias, the Virgin and the Angel".

The epigraph placed in the counter-façade recalls the figure of the client, Patriarch of Jerusalem, Clerical Apostolic Waiter of Pope Innocent X and of Alexander VII, and Apostolic Nuncio in Spain to King Philip V. The temple, together with that of St. Mary della Pace, is characterized by the use of particular bricks, made in ancient times in the locality of La Fornace.
