San Leonardo Abate Church
Dedicated to Saint Leonard, Abbot of Noblac at Limoges in France
and patron saint of Masi Torello, this is one of the most significant examples of baroque architecture, where you can still see the original decorations, unique in the Ferrara area, and the dramatic Cantoria dell’Abside (Choir in the Apse).
Inside you can admire numerous altars with frescoes, statues and paintings.
A curiosity: an unexploded projectile, shot into the church from a tank on the very last day of the War, is conserved above the niche of the Sacred Heart.
Opening
Every day: from 8 am to 6 pm.
