St. Charlotte's Church was the Barzini family's official place of worship, located near their compound, for quick getaways. It was at this church that consigliere Domenico Mazza was buried, and where Emilio Barzini, Jr. was killed in a car bomb set by Aldo Trapani. This act shocked the Barzinis, who had seen the Church as neutral territory, and they began to push towards a final coup d'etat that resulted in the death of Emilio Barzini and the end of their golden age.
