The church of Saint Liberata is the oldest in Sant'Angelo Romano and with its convent dates back to the 14th century. The story goes that it was built by the citizens to have saved them from the plague.
The church has been renovated several times and inside you can observe the various interventions. In 1737 the convent was enlarged thanks to the intervention of Giovanni da Evora.
From the outside it appears as a neoclassical building, with a facade divided into three sections corresponding to the three internal naves. It has only one entrance door but three large windows that illuminate the interior and the central part of the facade ends with a tympanum.
The church has three naves with 2 chapels on each side. The interior is rich in works of art such as the altar area under a cross vault and which once housed the choir. Behind the altar is a small temple that displays a 15th-century altarpiece representing Santa Liberata in a large cloak as she addresses God.
Above the entrance door is the choir loft.
