Donations And Foundation

Silvio Galizia (1925-1989) from the Swiss canton of Aargau carried out the new construction of the Campo Santo Teutonico from 1962 to 1966, but beyond that he built numerous churches and priests' colleges in Rome since the 1950s. 2025 marks the 100th anniversary of his birth, and to mark the occasion, the family is dedicating itself to an appreciation and reappraisal of the estate of the great architect. From my own experience, I can say that Galizia had the impressive ability to think not only in modern terms but also in practical terms, and to conceive the interior generously even under the tightest of constraints, designing it, as it were, into the surrounding landscape..
