“very beautiful, impressive, good location must go in and have a look”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 17, 2012

must go, anyway in the middle of the city.
the church is very beautiful (especially the ceilings) and people there are very open , with a free tour we saw a show (starting from 17th century) with the painting coming down and the sculpcures behind showing slowly. there is acutually a real arm from a priest in front of one sculpture.

“Charmed by that baroque church”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 1, 2012

I'm not fond of baroque style, but was stunned by that church. I spent a lot of time watching all that work that was done in there. It worths a look.
