&#8220;to return home&#8221;), that is, agricultural farmhouses, in the middle of the fields.<br \/>\nAs time progressed, some    <\/span><span class=\"s1\">groups of these isolated shelters, which sprung up spontaneously in a restricted territory, due to their constant demographic growth asserted at first the role of boddeu (from the verb boddiri, &#8220;to collect&#8221;), that is, of a homogeneous settlement ensemble provided at some point with a building for public worship; the latter then, placed usually in a central position, in turn ended up gathering around it a real stable urban network, to the detriment of the previous rural shelters then progressively abandoned or remodeled for simple productive purposes.<br \/>\nThis was also the case in Sant&#8217;Anna Arresi.<br \/>\nFrom 1855 when it was built and for another eighty years, while waiting for the village to grow sufficiently, its church remained a dependent chaplaincy of the parish of St. John the Baptist in Masainas.<br \/>\nOf the mother church, the branch resumed the simple and poor architectural layout.<br \/>\nBoth, in fact, consisted of a small rectangular single-nave hall without side chapels, St. Anne&#8217;s 8 meters wide and 20 meters long, divided into four bays.<br \/>\nThree round-headed diaphragm arches support a double-pitched wooden roof.<br \/>\nConsistent with its chronological horizon, the facade shows a clear neoclassical conformation in its smooth, straight mirroring, bordered by pilasters erected on false plinths on which rests a triangular tympanum.<br \/>\nIn 1935 the former chaplaincy of Sant&#8217;Anna Arresi was erected into a parish, so the church was enlarged with the addition of a new presbytery chapel, facing north.<br \/>\nThe polygonal plan and segmental vaulting, taken from 14th-century models, are a tribute to the neo-Gothic style then prevailing in ecclesiastical circles.<br \/>\nThe small ribbed bell tower, with its double ogival light, raised to extend the apex of the facade, also conforms to the same taste.         <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":111703,"template":"","meta":{"COMUNE":[],"note":[],"indirizzo":[],"accessibilita_mezzi":[],"coordinates":[],"images":[],"adesioni":[],"footnotes":""},"monumento_tipologia":[679,691],"accessibilita":[],"accessibilita_mezzi":[],"class_list":["post-92301","monumento","type-monumento","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","monumento_tipologia-chiesa-en","monumento_tipologia-religione-e-culto-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/monumenti\/92301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/monumenti"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/monumento"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/monumenti\/92301\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":102278,"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/monumenti\/92301\/revisions\/102278"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/111703"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=92301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"monumento_tipologia","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/monumento_tipologia?post=92301"},{"taxonomy":"accessibilita","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/accessibilita?post=92301"},{"taxonomy":"accessibilita_mezzi","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monumentiaperti.com\/it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/accessibilita_mezzi?post=92301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
