The Sanctuary of St. Anthony of Padua and the Franciscan Holy Protomartyrs is a Catholic place of worship in Terni, a parish building since 1923. It is generally considered the "working-class" parish because of its location, between the station and the steel mills, which usually makes it a destination for workers and, at the same time, a place open to hospitality and charity, following the spirit of the Franciscan community.
