In 1970 Ludovico Quaroni was commissioned to design the parish church of Gibellina on the top of a slight hill, at the highest point of the town. The project is completed in 1972 together with Luisa Anversa. The geometry of the church of Gibellina represents a novelty, not only in the typological scheme of the building and in its relationship with the place, but also in the language for architectural forms. The various functions are collected and distributed within a parallelepiped with a square base of about 50 meters on each side, further divided into modules and sub-modules, while the symbolic and geometric center of the monument is a large smooth concrete sphere which constitutes a reference punctual of the sacred. Work began in 1985.
