Show Notes
In 1637, Francesco Borromini designed and began building an oratory – a place for public worship and musical performances – for the followers of St. Phillip Neri, known as the "Filippini." The façade of this oratory is another of Borromini's visionary architectural projects with its curved plan and unorthodox sculptural elements.
