Description:The Church of Mary Immaculate was opened in 1913. The church is a Romanesque Renaissance single-naved basilica with east and west transepts. At Mary Immaculate's 1913 opening it was still without its designed facade of twin towers, narthex and pillared portico, all of which were added in 1929-1930. Internally the church's most striking features are the seven great paintings depicting the Franciscan Crown (or Rosary) of the Seven Joys of Our Lady Mary. These, the work of Italian artist and art Professor Cesare Vagarini, fill the three arched bays of the nave and the blind rear wall of the sanctuary.
