St. Augustine's Square's St. Joseph's Seminary and Church is a special presence. This green façade is the entrance to the monastery, but it is not open to the public. It has been a residential building since 1728 and has been inaugurated in related buildings. Until the 1960s, it was a college that trained clergy, and then no more. Since the monastery is not open to the public, it can only be commemorated as an outside film, and the wonderful place is actually: the church part.

 

St. Joseph's Seminary

Green is part of St. Joseph's Seminary, one of the World Heritage Sites, but it is not open to the public.


Part of the church is called St. Joseph's Church, which was built in 1746 and was completed in 1758 in 12 years. If people are ruined by the fire of the Church of Mater Dei in The Ruins of St. Paul's, because the original church is not visible, the church, which is second only to the Church of Mater Dei on the scale of the building, is even more precious. .


Let's go to the church together now, starting from St. Augustine's Square, it takes about 4 minutes.。
