In the South of the inhabited centre of Vicovaro between the Tiburtina Valeria road and the Aniene river, there is the Church of Saint Anthony the Abbot.

It was erected on the ancient opus quadratum substructures of the ancient Tiburtina Valeria road by the Confraternity of SS. Cross of Vicovaro in the 15th century. Extended by the architect Pietro Torelli between 1743 and 1755, this church presents a plant characterized by a central altar and three lateral chapels joined by a single nave which ends into the sacristy. The major altar preserves a wooden crucifix of the 16th century. Worthy of note is also the polychrome terracotta statue of Saint Anthony the Abbot belonging to the 16th century. The external shows a Renaissance portico articulated into four columns in coral gravel with Doric capitals of the Flavian age. In front of the church there was the Hospital (16th century) where poor people were welcomed and people suffering from shingles were cared for.
