Alatri. Brotherhood of St. Sixtus Pope and Martyr

The Venerable Brotherhood of St. Sisto Pope and Martyr was founded in 1429 and joined the Venerable Confraternity of SS. Trinita dei Pellegrini in Rome in March 1578. Its purpose was to promote the cult of the saint and help the needy.

After a period of difficulty, January 10, 1990 the brotherhood returned to resume its duties: it collaborated in the restoration of the church dedicated to Our Lady of Loreto and other sacred monuments, and is in charge of organizing the civil celebrations for the feast of the patron.
