Church in the hamlet of San Felice, Presenzano, dedicated to St Felix of Cantalice, the Capuchin friar known as the saint of children.

In the hamlet that bears his name, in Presenzano, stands the small church dedicated to San Felice da Cantalice. It is a simple place of worship that welcomes the faithful mainly at weekends for Sunday Mass, and it is the religious focal point of the hamlet's community.We like recalling the figure of the saint: a peasant from the Rieti area who became a Capuchin friar in the 16th century, known as the saint of children and as Brother Deogratias after his usual greeting. We suggest combining the stop with a visit to the remains of ancient Rufrae and Presenzano Castle.
