Europe/Italy - Rome dedicates one of its piazzas to the memory of Korea's martyrs

Rome (Fides Service) - Recently the ancient city of Rome called one of its beautiful piazzas after the Korean Church's martyrs. Largo dei Santi Martiri Coreani is not far from the Pontifical Korean College, the seminary in central Rome, opened by Pope John Paul II on 23 March 2001. Fr Anthony Talsu Jon, rector of the College which is home for Korean priest students studying in Rome, says that a statue of Saint Andrea Kim Tae-gon, patron of Korean clergy will be set up in the square. He welcomes Korean visitors to Rome to visit the college and the piazza. SL (Fides Service 12/12/2002)
