[1] The parish was established by Bishop Adelmo Tacconi on 1 November 1979, with the dedication to the Holy Family, a choice made during the first ecclesial assembly held from September 10 to 12.

[5] The church of the Holy Family was the last building in the housing development to be completed, with its consecration occurring on 9 April 1989, marking the anniversary of the episcopal transfer from Rusellae by Pope Innocent II.

[2][4] The architectural complex is a unified structure made of exposed reinforced concrete, featuring white color and sinuous, rounded forms that contrast with the grey, angular buildings of the surrounding neighborhood.

[5][7] Covering an area of 1,100 square meters, the complex consists of a raised platform connected to the street level by ramps and stairs, and is organized into four core sections.

[5][7] According to Paolini (2013), the building "impresses with how it relates to the surrounding urban environment",[6] while Catalani, Del Francia, and Tombari (2011) commend its "gentle curves" and the cohesive architectural unity of the entire complex, achieved through a "consistent and homogeneous design of geometry and volume".
